  Besides, I really like Squeak.  I hated VisualWorks
(an expanded, refined
 descendant of the original Xerox Smalltalk) when I used it in class.  But
 Squeak is a lot more manageable, and it helps to be able to tinker instead
 of worrying about doing homework. 
Well, I downloaded both Squeak and 'Smalltalk Express'. Squeak is
certainly more complete, SE tries to be an IDE of Smalltalk which isn't
what it's about. However, it seems that both use lots of RAM. I often get
out-of-memory errors when trying to multitask under Win95 with either of
these running.
