Blake:

You could try Cuis http://www.jvuletich.org/Cuis/Index.html

If full Cuis still scares you , I have a reduced version originated from a
work Juan what is at this time the most complete / smaller .
In 2.5 mb you have a nice scaled down Morphic with same Network as Squeak
4.3.

On top of this you could put some logic and have WebClient and start with
web apps.

Cuis have some fans and a Spanish list in our
http://ar.groups.yahoo.com/group/squeakRos/

Forget is a Spanish list for talk about everything and send questions in
English and sure have answers.
