That's not entirely true. Have you tried Docker Toolbox? https://www.docker.com/products/docker-toolbox It works on Windows 7 and up and was the previous basis for my Windows installer for Sage, and worked fine. You can also try the Windows installer but it's currently at Sage 7.4 and is not "official" yet. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
