(Too bad it's not an older PPC Mac, then you would have Forth built
into the firmware.)

GNU Forth works well, since Mac OS X has FreeBSD underneath. You can
obtain gforth via Fink or Darwin****ts; download and build the source
from the GNU site; or you can use the PPC binary version under
emulation at http://www.quirkster.com/forth/gforth.dmg.gz
