We have been told that the release of GEOS 2.0 is due in 1st quater 1993.

Now that it *is* the 1st quarter of 1993 (just), does anyone (the long
suffering john perhaps?) know (and is able to tell) of some narrower time
frame.  I know Geoworks hates release dates par se, because they have gotten
such a reputation for being missed (they are fast becoming
recriperverse exculsons (ie the release date is the only one on which you can
*guarentee* that the product will never be released. :-) )).  However I would
think that by now Geoworks must have a fair idea of how far along the Beta
tests have gotten, so perhaps they could tell us whether the release is say,
three days away, or three months? 

I just hope that the release doesn't get run over by the WIn-NT jugarnaut,
which is also *due* out in 1st quarter, though Macoronisoft will doubtless miss
the deadline :-)

It'd be *nice* if it was out before the summer holidays are over, so that I get
a chance to play with it, before I have other things to concentrate on....

Always hoping for more info........ (anyting, realy!)
