2816 Lisp cells (11264 bytes). A bit on the small side, but you get 5ms garbage collections because the memory is so tiny.
We need more little systems that are somewhere between underpowered Arduinos and entire Linux systems.
If only Blackberry hadn't killed off open-source QNX. A board with a few megabytes of RAM and QNX in ROM would be a nice system for many embedded applications. You get processes, threads, message passing, and real-time scheduling. But disks, users accounts, networking, etc. are optional add-ons. Nice for embedded applications where you need to control hardware but have other things to do as well.
