The first thing I learned about GEOS 64 is that it would not let me
use it when I had Write Protect labels on the Master Disk.  BAH!!!

I tried making a copy of that disk to use but the program wouldn't
recognize any copies that I made, and I tried more than one copy
program.

I am a believer in never using a Master Disk except for making a copy
of it to be used instead of using the Master Disk.

A friend of mine loved using GEOS 64 and Q-Link, he even bought a
Commodore Mouse to use with GEOS.

I didn't want to have my Master Disk written to.
That disk and the disk for the offer from Compuserve for a free trial
are keeping company together, I never used either of them.
