Differences between revisions 1 and 2

Sage is fully supported on the following platforms:

Linux on x86
Linux on x86-64, i.e. AMD's Athlon 64 & Opteron CPUs and Intel's CPUs with EMT64 extension
Linux on IA64
MacOSX on PPC (32 bit only)
MacOSX on Intel (32 bit only)
VMWare via a 32 bit Linux image (we support a specific preconfigured image meant for use in windows).

Supported means all doctests pass. If not please report the problem to the Google group sage-devel or sage-support. You might also report problems in the IRC channel #sage-devel on freenode.

The following platforms are feasible in the short term and depend mostly on somebody who is willing to do the job. If you intend to work on a specific port please let the Sage people know.

Linux PPC 32 bit [99.9% done, only open issue is DSage platform support, mabshoff is working on this]
Linux PPC 64 bit [planning, hardware access available]
MacOSX on PPC 64 bit
MacOSX on Intel 64 bit
Solaris 9 on Sparc 32 bit [ongoing, getting close, mabshoff is working on this]]
Solaris 9 on Sparc 64 bit
Solaris 10 on Sparc 32 bit [ongoing, getting close, mabshoff is working on this]]
Solaris 10 on Sparc 64 bit
Solaris 10 on x86 32 bit
Solaris 10 on Opteron/EMT64 64 bit [ongoing, getting close, mabshoff is working on this]]

Wanted/wishlist:

AIX 64 bit [access to hardware missing]
Windows/MSVC 32 & 64 bit [monumental undertaking, estimate: 1-2 man years]

It used to be supported on:

Windows/Cygwin - this port was dropped due to numerous problems after the 2.5.0 release
