If you don't think smalltalk is coming to home computers you are not
listening.  There are at least 2 Japanese companies working on smalltalk
ports.  If I remember right, it was a Fujitsu engineer who gave a talk about
their optimized smalltalk implementation at POPL in January.  They are
building an iAPX-86 machine that can run smalltalk (plus IBMPC of course).

This is not a rumor, this is fact.  I was at POPL.  I heard the talk.  The
man from Japan has a plan.  He didn't announce availability though.
