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.

Where can I get some 40 hour days I could use some.

You start somewhere in Japan, get on the plane to Europe, then from Europe you get on the plane to US, and in US you get to Bahamas .
It may not be a 40 hours day exactly, but it will definitely feel like it.

What do you want from the guy - he was doing 8088 assembly, his brains are permanently damanged.


He made it pretty clear in the interview. A forty hour day would be a forty hour work day, i.e., forty hours non-stop. You must have been coming off some 8088 assembly programming when you read the article. It was pretty obvious.
