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.

I have one old 486/99 still running DR DOS 6 and GeoWorks Ensemble. DR Dos was and is the best DOS - fast and stable. GeoWorks Ensemble is still impressive for speed and stability. All it really needs is a spreadsheet, a decent comm program and a browser.
