Thanks for the article! I'm working on a toy language for a learning/hobby project that is kind of sort of Smalltalkish, so I have been digging up all the things Smalltalk related I could find -- thats why it popped up again. :) If you happen to know of any decent resources on implementation of Smalltalk VMs I'd love to hear them -- I know that the old and unfortunately out of print book Smalltalk 80: the language and its implementation is commonly recommended.
