+Squeak is a new implementation of the Smalltalk programming environment;
+it includes among other things:
+    * a rapid-turn-around Smalltalk-80 compiler,
+    * a caching-JIT run-time virtual machine (with full source in
+      Smalltalk),
+    * large class libraries with portable data and GUI models, and
+    * an integrated development environment with coding tools, GUI
+      construction.
+
+Squeak was developed at Apple Labs and Walt Disney and has been ported
+to a variety of computers (including most flavors of UNIX and Windows).
+Compared to other Smalltalk systems, Squeak has four important features:
+    * Portability (to Mac, Windows, WinCE, and many flavors of UNIX);
+    * Speed (it uses native C for compute-intensive code);
+    * Price (free, including all source code and the right to distribute
+      applications!); and
+    * Sophistication (full Smalltalk-80 language, libraries, and tools).
