Original OSNews Interviews It is always an honour to interview people who have 'served' and worked on operating systems at the "golden" times of the operating systems, the '80s and pre-Win9x days. Today we interview Adam de Boor, who was the CTO at GeoWorks, developers of the GEOS, in the begining of the last decade. Adam today works for OpenWave Systems. We discuss about GeoWorks, its past, its future, where it should have been.

GeoWorks owned me

I used to use GeoWorks on my old PC back in the day. It was so much more stable than Win 3.1, I never understood why anyone would waste their time with Win 3.1. I guess at the innocent and tender age of 12, so many irrational adult descisions can't be pushed out of the way with something like "because it's Microsoft."

I'd love to get a hold of GeoWorks to play with again, especially to play with the visual GeoBasic. If anyone has a copy to donate, I'd love to recieve it! ;)
