Well, on a lispm, yes. However, most of us don't have lispms (as much as we might want one!), and the symbolics VM is a pain to run. In CL, you don't do that so

In any case, at least a few Schemes have images, so it's a moot point in that debate. It's still interesting, though.

It has a very extensive application/library delivery mechanism based on images. LispWorks can also save 'sessions', even automatically as periodically timed events. Even without quitting Lisp. Sessions are basically IDE states (files, listener history, lisp image, windows, ...).
