an alternative is to install Sage locally, then you would be able to run more or less the same sagenb interface, without converting .sws files. sage-4.8.ova is a virtual machine image for VirtualBox (https://www.virtualbox.org/) (although this .ova file might be too old to run on an up to date version of VirtualBox) More precisely, it is Sage installed into a more or less minimal build of a Linux system, packaged for running on VirtualBox rather than on real hardware. You can also get an .ova file for a more recent Sage version, see http://files.sagemath.org/win/ Installing this setup would allow you to run Sage anywhere you can install VirtualBox. (If you have a Linux or an OSX machine, this is not needed, you can compile from source or get a "native" binary installation).
