Hi,<br>
<br>
Yes, it's entirely free and open-source.<br>
<br>
This page:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.squeak.org/Documentation/Installation/">http://www.squeak.org/Documentation/Installation/</a><br>
<br>
is a step by step procedure of starting squeak.<br>
<br>
The easiest way is the have a short cut to Squeak.exe on your desktop
and drag the image file (e.g. Squeak3.9-final-7067.image) on top.<br>
You can also double click on Squeak.exe and then load the image file
when it asks for it. This loads a little slower, though.<br>
<br>
If you have further questions, please ask. You might also be interested
in the beginners mailing list:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners">http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners</a><br>
Many experts answer questions, usually right away.<br>
<br>
Welcome to Squeak!<br>

free download. Any help with this
supposedly easy to use software would be appreciated. I like the
concept and
would like my child to have access to it.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
