Our user group in Rochester NY also had a disk-based demo of GEOS recently.
Not bad!  I was almost tempted to sign up for a version 1 copy.  I believe
it will retail for $59.95 (onesies).  The ROM cartidge saves most of your
existing RAM space.  It uses the ST mouse or a joystick - we didn't see a
mouse demo'd, but it's got to be better than using a joystick.  It's based
upon SpartaDOS (making use of files within folders/subdirectories support).

Didn't see the paint program or the text editor demo'd.
