Well, my interpretation of your use of the word "dumb" let me to this 
conclusion :-)

Absolutely not. I'm the first one to shout "one million flies..." when people 
say that MS stuff must be good because it is sold so much. I think it'd be 
cool to have Squeak on PalmOS not because of technical coolness, but because 
it is such a widespread platform. Especially because it's a consumer-oriented 
device.
