Hello, I am running Sage Version 3.0.5 (installed from sage-3.0.5-i386-Darwin-osx10.4-intel.dmg) on a MacBook 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo/ OS X 10.4.11.
I can run Maxima directly: sage: !maxima Maxima 5.13.0 http://maxima.sourceforge.net Using Lisp CLISP 2.46 (2008-07-02) Distributed under the GNU Public License. See the file COPYING. Dedicated to the memory of William Schelter. This is a development version of Maxima. The function bug_report() provides bug reporting information.
