        True!

        Really? Do you have that confidence that Windows is going
 to be around for a while? I'd be interested in your opinions on
 this.

        While we're at it, why not transfer this thread to the networked
 FORTH conference and we can talk about UR/Forth on the net.

        Our (Vesta's) interest is that we are interested in porting
 our single-board computer development environment to Windows &|
 OS/2.
