Little Smalltalk is not Smalltalk-80.  Its syntax is
slightly different as are some of the semantics.  In 
addition, the class hierarchy is an incompatible subset
of the Smalltalk-80 class hierarchy.  Little Smalltalk
is best thought of as a small object-oriented system usefull
for experimenting with oo-concepts, rather than as a base
from which to build a full Smalltalk-80 system.

Little Smalltalk can be gotten from Prof. Tim Budd at
University of Washington.  If you buy the book on Little
Smalltalk, it has ordering instructions.

Thanks Geoff.  I actually agree with almost everything you said; except
the last point.  I'm not at the University of Washington, I'm at 
Oregon State University.  I can be reached via budd@oregon-state.csnet,
or budd@orstcs.uucp (we talk to hp-pcd and tektronix, among others).

To order Little Smalltalk, send a check for $30 made out to Oregon State
University, to
	Smalltalk Distribution
	Department of Computer Science
	Oregon State University
	Corvallis, Oregon 97331

(I apologize to anybody who thinks this looks too much like an
advertisement; but at that price you know we can't be making too much
money off it!)
