Indeed I used Oberon (both native and windows-hosted) for a few intense months back some summer in the 90s. I still have a fondness, perhaps rose-tinted by time, for Pascal languages.

I particularly remember when someone made an Oberon pcode VM browser plugin as a 'competitor' to the newfangled Java applets. I think it was caled Juice or something.

Interestingly Chrome NaCL is going in the same direction, distributing pcode (well, LLVM IR iirc) and doing final compilation on-target.
