I tried your approach--and Firefox has never liked the suggested 'numerical' URLs that have been mentioned in SAGE releases. BUT--I rediscovered the online use of SAGE at http://www.sagenb.org. I had apparently tried it out before I started practicing with SAGE on my computer, because it had an old worksheet of mine sitting there. I was able to start a new worksheet, copy and paste the worksheet elements from Virt. Box to the online sheet, and everything works fine (actually better--the online version is using 4.4.1, and I can't get it put together on my windows setup). So--everything works quite well. I can print the worksheet out in PDF form if I want, and can actually use SAGE for something other than practice. Thanks.
