Great! Make sure and subscribe to sage-support http://www.sagemath.org/lists.html so you can make us aware of the features of Mathematica that you miss. There will likely be such features, but at least if you tell us about them we can put them on the todo list -- there are numerous students clamoring for things to implement for SAGE lately, and the more available projects the better. > I had no problems whatsoever (but I know Kubuntu/VMware fairly well), > compared to when I tried to set up SAGE with Cygwin in March. > I am fairly impressed with the web-based notebook interface and it has > progressed to a mature and usable state beyon what I expected when I > tried it last. > > I will try to install VMware Server (to enable copy/paste and more) later. You you could use any Windows-based ssh client to ssh into the virtual machine (at the same ip address that you go to in order to use the notebook). Then you can use the VMware machine, but have cut and paste functionality via the ssh client (e.g., putty or something else).
