Re: Geos 2.x

[jeffrey frey <yerffej@xxxxxxxxxx>]

 I've run GEOS2 on various 8088 scale machines using FLASH and SRAM cards.  These include a Lexbook MB15 and Olivetti Quaderno, but not the PC3K yet.  It takes about 3Mb for the useful parts of GEOS, excluding any web stuff.

Unfortunately the PC3K doesn't have a builtin mouse like the MB15, but at least GEOS has a fairly good keyboard-mouse arrangement.  It does not, however, let you draw curved lines.
