I also like the idea of using a minimal linux to run squeak on.  Linux has a lot
of developers supporting it on many platforms.  Why not build on their work and
not redo that work by writing Squeak drivers for keyboards, mice and other
devices.  Just hide Linux as best you can, use it for the low level stuff and
have Squeak do everything else.
