Well ... I got the images (ISO and floppy) from the Sourceforge site. 
They boot up in VMware but all I get is a blank white screen. I'm about 
to send email to the GLColorForth creator to see if he can help with the 
assembler stuff. I also think I'm going to try booting the floppy on my 
Toshiba Libretto 70. :)
