    The only programming language that has more implementations than users.

    The bearing of a child takes nine months, no matter how many women are assigned.

        I am new to Forth ... it seems that is has a long history, and there is even a .net implementation published on CP: [Delta Forth .NET](https://www.codeproject.com/Tips/1752/Delta-Forth-NET)

                  Don't worry. Mickeysoft is catching up quickly with all the new versions and incarnations of the .Net framework. Compatibility at least never was Forth's big problem.

                          I remember look at some Forth code the guys were writing for an Atari 400/800 at the game company I was working at years ago. I was coding 6502 assembly for the C64 on [a separate game](http://www.myabandonware.com/game/turtle-toyland-jr-6g7). Forth seemed completely unintelligible. While my first "computer" was an HP calculator and I loved RPN, the programming (all 49 instruction spaces) was still linear. Funny that, now that I think about it.

                                  I tried for a while the Forth programming language on my ZX Spectrum, then I discarded it in favour of the Z80 assembly.
