A Question:

What are the differences between the new (Digitalk) Visual Smalltalk and
older versions... What platform(s) is it available for.. Just Windows or
other?  And what is an approximate cost...

Is there much variance between different implementations of Smalltalk from
different vendors (in other words, if I write a smalltalk program and want
to switch to another smalltalk product for whatever reason, would I have a
lot of re-writing on my hands, or is it largely portable?
