Well Tim, since you brought it up... The only thing I know about Chris Macie's Smalltalk was the article that was written about it in Byte Magazine ( back when computer mags were worth reading... )
This list has enough history behind it to make me believe that someone out there may know more about this Smalltalk- since I like collecting these sorts of things, does anyone have any more information on this? Has anyone here used it? Do they still have it? Do they know where Chris is? I believe he may have worked at PPD at one time ( a web search years ago turned up some evidence about that ).
Curiously,

Chris Reuter cgreuter@calum.csclub.uwaterloo.ca is widely believed to have written:
make that a Sinclair ZX81 with 1 kB RAM, which did not allow you to use every character on your 24x32 display P-)
Which reminds me--when are we porting Squeak to it?
Ouch. Mind you, Chris Macie did a pretty decent Smalltalk for an Apple II with a 128k expansion memory ( I think he might have made it himself) many, many years ago.
