<The ParcPlace version is the *real thing*, straight from Xerox, compatible with various books on Smalltalk, down to the structure of the class hierarchy.> Don't count on it. Since they own it, they feel free to change the spec. Tek Smalltalk is actually more compatible with the Blue Book than PPS 2.4. But of course, PPS is closer to the Blue Book than Smalltalk/V, which had to create the environment from scratch because PPS refuses to cooperate in standards movements. Sigh. Sour grapes. I'll get off my soap box now. Smalltalk will never get off the ground until there is a Gnu version of it.
