Software Download: Squeak is a free, exciting, multimedia, programming environment that runs on 12 different computer platforms. You can download the plugin for Squeak at www.squeakland.org. Once the downloaded icon is on your desktop, double-click it for easy installation. This activity uses the new version of Squeak made available in September 2004. If you installed Squeak prior to that, you should update your version of Squeak at www.squeakland.org.
Cautions: Although the Squeak plugin works for Windows 95 and 98, those operating
systems are older and less stable and you may experience problems when running Squeak. It is preferable to have a processor speed of 300 MHz or greater and at least 64 MB of RAM. The project is best viewed with a resolution of 1024x768. With lower resolutions you have to scroll and with higher resolutions it is smaller and possibly harder to read.
