I have been wondering why GeoWorks haven't been concerned with trying to
include DOS multitasking. Even Windows has got it to a very limited extent...

Well, now I read that MSDOS 7 (or was it DR DOS 7) should support DOS 
multitasking. That would solve the whole problem for GeoWorks!

I am looking forward to the day when I can run DOS software at the same time 
as I'm running Geos. 

Of course, the multitasking DOS will probably not be written in that compact and
elegant way we have come to expect from GeoWorks.


Cheers.
