Brian, An exhibit on Fourth should explain the stack archtecture and other things that make Fourth unique (and a write-only language). An excellent topic. Jim On Fri, 20 Jan 2017, Brian L. Stuart via vcf-midatlantic wrote:

If you want a really nice Forth workstation, pick up a nice SPARCstation-IPC or -IPX and just don't boot it! ;)
I should take one of my IPCs and dedicate it to that :) Come to think of it, maybe that's what I should do for VCF this year: a Forth exhibit. I should easily be able to have 3 or 4 different Forths running on a table. At a quick thought, I should be able to have it running on a 6809, a 68HC11, a SPARC, and an LSI-11. I had been thinking about doing a follow-up to last year's ENIAC exhibit but was worried that might be too repetative.
