This was actually available from Apple for a while when the Mac was young, I think via one or other of the developer programs. It also ‘grew up’ to become the first Squeak image as released in ’96 and of course that has grown up to become the current Squeak and Pharo images. So in a sense, yes it actually does run on a Squeak VM.
