      You're right.  It seems that Aero 2130 is a MIPS device.

Yes, sorry for not making that explicit. "Compaq Aero" apparently means
a number of different things.

In any event, I was pretty certain I actually did use the HPC-MIPS
binary (the other MIPS binary I saw didn't really work at all), but I
downloaded the HPC-MIPS binary from the URL you provided, and now I get
different behaviour: When I start squeak.exe, I get prompted for "Main
Memory Size", where I can enter a value from 0.0 to 9.9 Mb (no more than
that).  If I do this and press the "Go!" button, I very, very briefly
see a message that says something like, "Your program has performed an
illegal operation and will be shut down, contact your vendor if this
persists" -- hence this email.  (-:

    or
    http://www.is.titech.ac.jp/~ohshima/squeak/WinCE/030206/SqueakVM-alpha6-030206-PalmSizePC-MIPS.zip

With the latter URL, I get the same prompt, but Squeak just seems to
crash outright when I press "Go!"

Good suggestions -- got any more?

Thanks,
Bill
