As you seem to be the author: will this run on a voyage 200? Also: very impressive.

Honestly, I don't understand this. AFAIK colorForth was a standalone system for Pentium class machines. How do Windows updates come into this?

Oil cooling. Besides this is a peak power value, so thermal constraints don't matter. Continous power is given around 350-400 kW.

My favourite is Texas Instruments PC-Scheme. Complete with Emacs-like editor. You could compile and evaluate regions in the editor. It is amazing what you can do in 2MB or even 640K.

This motivates me to try this on my Ministrel 4th (21th century Jupiter Ace clone).

Scheme Compilers:

* Gambit-C 3.0 for MS-DOS (https://gambitscheme.org/3.0/gc30-dj.zip)

* MIT-Scheme 7.3 for DOS: (https://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/ftpdir/scheme-7.3/pc/)

Both need a 386+.

* PC-Scheme/Geneva (https://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/project/ai-repository/ai/lang/...) Bytecode compiler, runs on 8086+, can use up to 2MB of EMS memory.

I think once you get rid of dynamic libraries and GUIs your software rot will be greatly reduced.
