Tomeu, Thank you for the pointer. Yes, we have tried running SocialCalc on Sugar with SoaS as the Sugar distribution. Works pretty well. We'll look into the other distributions as recommended.

So you don't run windows when you boot that .iso, just linux. Have you tried other linux live images containing Sugar? There's SoaS, Trisquel, OpenSUSE, etc. See in the wiki for links and instructions.
