Not so, I have seen it and used it, and true, it doesnt have much practical use
just yet, though I am sure that third party software companies, as well as
Berkley and Commodore will write applications for it. I personally am not
planning to buy a copy until a C compiler is written for it, and a terminal
package. But it is a nice way of doing things, as the MacIntosh and Amiga, and
St have proven.
Maybe you have had more time to play with GEOS. I have only had a little time
but I like it. Especially the drawing program. And my friends like the editor
as well.
But If no one writes any software for it, you may be right. It will end up
being a toy. (A rather expensive one, here in Canada.
