A newbie - welcome! We're always happy to spread the addiction. To find out
for yourself, do this:
1) open a workspace, type Object new.
2) select the new text, right click and choose debug-it
3) step into #new, and note that it take you to
^self basicNew initialize
At the risk of oversimplifying, that creates a no-frills instance and then
invokes #initialize. Not all Smalltalks do this; it is either a bug or a
feature depending on one's perspective, though I confess I have bigger things
to worry about at present.

I'm sort of a newbie, can you elaborate on not requiring #initialize after #new
somewhat, or point me to where it is documented, I searched around a little
bit, but quickly got lost.
Thanks!
