Daniel: Many years ago GeoWorks when they were in Berkeley and later Alameda, CA they built good stuff. I think we still have some of the old developers stuff sitting on the shelf. The nicest thing about the folks were they could laugh and weren't uptight when ya spotted a SNAFU.
BillyGoat and his little gruffs were such a pain to deal with - they lied to ya at first and then they tried to get ya to cover up for 'em. Best joke we ever pulled on Mr. BillyGoat was to purchase a off-the-shelf copy of Excel and run it when he was showing his next generation. Then we showed 'em where it didn't work correctly in our version and asked him to show how they fix it in his version. Needless to say he wouldn't come back to the local PC User meeting. Philippi Khan and Gordan Eubanks all could laugh when we pulled that stunt on them <bg> The fellows from GeoWorks sorta got into the Windows 3.1 marketing by bull dozer stuff which Micro$oft has been convicted of under the Sherman Anti-trust Act. If ya have a spare hundred to buy it you might end up ahead... John Oram Daniel Pruitt wrote: > > The last version of GEOSWorks by NewDeal Inc, was aquired by Breadbox > Computers.
