I think it could potentially be a good idea, personally. One could use an

: 64* 4* ...
: 16* 4* ...
: 4* 2* 2* ;
I think this is pretty slick syntax, and am thinking about other sorts of payoff beyond the nice polynomial-form and synthetic-division sorts of things. Maybe something Markoff-like? Hmmm.
BTW, does anyone have any recommendation for small motherboards/systems whose BIOSes boot from USB? I bit the bullet today and bought an AVB 128 Megabyte USB 2 "thumbnail" flash drive (for $30). Not bad, but now I want to mess around out of my depth. :P
Mike, years of experience with FORTH but stll not a lick of work with Colorforth--yet...
