 Polyforth is a top professional system.  It's quite expensive, and --I'm
 sure even the Polyforth employees you see here will agree-- not a system
 for an amateur or beginner.  Where HS/Forth and LMI products cost up to 
 about $500 or so (depending on levels & options) PolyForth is in the 
 thousands.  OTOH, along with that comes some fantastic support, 
 including on-site training, from what I've heard.  Polyforth has come 
 late to the DOS-support view, having been a staunch advocate of 
 forth-as-operating-system.
