Concerning the quotes below: It's a good thing my version of 
Ensemble 2.01 can't read. It doesn't know any better then 
to run on a 12MHz 286 with 1meg of RAM. I don't know where 
all of these 386 only posts keep coming from. Someone must 
have made a typing mistake somewhere and it was never 
corrected. Sure it runs faster with more RAM and a bigger 
processor, but Ensemble 2.01 WILL run on a 286 with 1 meg 
of RAM.
 TC> Do you have a shareware version of GEOS that would work on a 286 wit
 TC> Dos
 TC> 6.2 on it?  I would love to try it out.
 TR> There _might_ be a 'demo' of Geoworks
 TR> but if so I'm not recalling it right now and likely don't have it no
 
 TC>      The reason that I thought GEOS would work with my 286 is because
 TC>      I am using AOL for DOS which has the GEOS interface and it works
 TC>      fine...I will continue my search for a shareware/trial version
 TC>      of GEOS...next stop will be AOL's file areas.
 CM> If you can't find a demo or the testdrive version of GW1.2, try
 CM> to grab a used copy of the ver1.2. It WILL run on a 286 just
 CM> hunky-dory. It will even run on an XT class machine. The newer
 CM> demo must be of the ver 2.0, and it does require at lest a 386.
 CM> Possibly even a copy of the shareware "GeoPublish" may have
 CM> enough of the GeoManager to add the AOL icon and run it from that
 CM> interface. I personally can attest to the fact of ver 1.2 running
 CM> on an xt, up, as I did run it on one, then upgraded to a 286, and
 CM> watched it fly. Then came the 386sx, and ver 2.0, followed by a
 CM> 486dx4-120 and ver 2.01....seems really impressive on this class
 CM> machine, kinda makes me wonder how it will do on a pentium or
 CM> better...he he he ...
I repeat, I'm using Geos Ensemble 2.01 on a 286 w/ 1 meg RAM.
