Great. That looks very impressive. I've not tried building Sage on Solaris 10 on x86, which I see you have installed. That would probably be less hassle to build than the Open Solaris version, as we know the SPARC version of Solaris works http://t2nb.math.washington.edu:8000/ But an Open Solaris version of Sage is more useful I think. No doubt more challenging, but more useful too. I've not used VirtualBox much, but what I have seen of it, I am very impressed. I mainly use it to connect to the internet to play chess, as the Windows software is better than any of the other stuff at the minute.
