1/2 I was talking to @howtophilHowToPhil (Phillip R) about GEOS and decided that I would spin up a VM to run it. Let me tell you what I learned. I used Qemu and started with FreeDOS (FD14 is really slick!) but GEOS20 would error out on launch. Something to do with memory/files/buffers but none of my fiddling would get it to work. I thought it might have something to do with memory management so I spun up a generic MSDOS6 VM...

My old Thinkpad running Geoworks Ensemble 2.0. The main desktop is visible looking very similar to windows 3.
