Oh...I forgot to mention:
If you want a good example of how Forth is used to implement a powerful,
low-level, processor independent environment, take a look at
OpenFirmware ( IEEE-1275) and OpenBIOS:
http://www.openfirmware.org/
http://openbios.org/
Forth code is used to implement processor and system independent boot
code for Suns, Apple's PPC based Macs, and several other 'alternateive'
(ie: not mainstream x86 PC) architectures.
