G+PLUS isn't really a German product, I think. It comes from some US
software house and is being imported to Germany by Bela. AMCGDOS, however,
is fast and from Arnd Beissner, a German VDI expert. New on the scene
is NVDI, a GDOS with an integrated VDI screen driver (very fast and
very clean; will be the successor to Turbo ST in Germany).
