Looks good so far! A couple things. 1) If it's on the virtual machine, does it really need you to create a password for the notebook? That seems overkill for this. If it's literally run off a CD that's pointless; I guess if it's on a USB stick maybe that saves the password? (I don't know.) In any case, then there is a SeaMonkey error because it's waiting for the NB to start at localhost:8000 2) When you click on the Sage NB or the command line, two windows come up. That is annoying. But it certainly *works*, and that is very important. Exactly what security risk would using an exe installer (say, if it were downloaded to a Windows 7 box and someone opened the installer) pose? Though Cygwin will still be a "more" native solution, something that is one-click is really the point for us. - kcrisman -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
