I have talked to some people at ParcPlace Systems (the people who sell and
support PS - Xerox's supported version of Smalltalk) and they hinted that
a fully supported version will be available for the Mac II.  I doubt it will
be available until the fall (but then, how many will have Mac II's before
then...).  The price of PS for the Suns is $5000 for non-educational
customers and $500 for colleges/univ.  So if that is any indication, I
would expect the price to be similar.
