Up on the Podium, we had a little board with about 6 chips and a PCMCIA ROM card on it.  It had wires coming from a battery and going to a little 1/2 VGA color LCD display.  The heart of the board was a Mitsubishi M32R/D chip which combines a RISC processor with 2MB of on-board RAM, all on one chip.

The Mits folks (a research group in MountianView) had interfaced the Squeak API to their BIOS and *bingo* in a couple of weeks they had a Squeak computer.

We booted the board and showed the screen by overhead camera, but we didn't actually have time to show much running.  The board runs everything you would expect -- factorial, warpBlt, and even real-time music synthesis.
