#fosdem followup on Arduino and Squeak eToys

Check out how fun this could be (no compile time, only fun, runtime)

And Kinect comes to the mix from the same great people (note that the little red car is driven through Kinect)

Cool isn’t it?

Smalltalk Squeak 4.2 is available

Nice image, lots of things back in (albeit no Omnibrowser but it is easy to get it inside).
Also, there is the comeback of the ST-80 classes.
Morphic has a good set of elements, and the look and feel is really great.
Mouse buttons got changed, now the right click brings up the halos. Much easier.

Very promising thing. I’ll test drive it in the coming days/weeks for my project about trigonometry with morphs.

Check out this screenshot (done from inside Squeak from the new screenshot option in the World menu):

As you notice, this is fullscreen. There is a toggle switch in the Squeak top menu. Very nice. No more hint of any underlying OS. Squeak *is* the OS!

Squeak 4.2 with some windows open.
