By all means, go out and buy it! It is fantastic system. Very fast reponse time on my 10 Mhz 0 wait state AT clone. The Smalltalk/V comes with an implementation of Prolog (with smalltalk source!) which works within smalltalk environment. Prolog predicates can be sent to prolog object instance as messages....how's that for an idea? The manual contains very nice tutorial on smalltalk language itself - comparing smalltalk to pascal syntax...
