such a system already exists. Obtain an XO-1 from One
Laptop Per Child and a developers key. Then you have a cute,
inexpensive, low-power, child-proof, water-proof, dust-proof netbook
that boots to Open Firmware, a very capable Forth system.

Who is/are the programmer(s) who have ported the
"very capable Forth system" on the XO-1 of the
One Laptop Per Child project ?

If you look back in the c.l.f archives (or maybe do a web search) you
can find a link to the location of the source code released by Mitch.
Good stuff.
