I downloaded the ReadyPC image from the SCGSmallWiki site and I am able 
to repeat the problem.

I think it is something wrong with the Bot Workspace. I am able to 
repeat your bug if I click the Do It or Do It All buttons in the Bot 
Workspace.

The good news is you can workaround the problem (by not using the 
buttons). Instead, press Alt+D or (Command+D on Mac) to invoke the do it 
command. This is what I normally do and explains why I didn't notice the 
problem when working through the book.

The Bot Workspace was added for the book. I bet the buttons worked at 
one point and a code change broke them. Went unnoticed because a lot of 
Squeakers already use the right-click context menus or the keyboard 
shortcuts.

I'm running windows. Can someone test on Mac and/or Linux?
