  GEOS (16-bit operating system) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GEOS was bundled with numerous PCs at the time, but like other GUI environments for the PC platform, such as GEM, it ultimately proved less successful in the marketplace than Windows.
GEOS was used in a low-end laptop from Brother International and in the Nokia Communicator (GEOS V3.0 in Nokia Communicator 9000 and 9110).
In 1995, GEOS appeared (running on top of DOS) on the HP OmniGo 100, a flip-around clamshell handheld computer powered by a Vadem VG230, which is a highly integrated PC-on-a-chip that includes an 80186-compatible core.

Still, GEOS ressurrected a platform that was past its prime, and many a computer was rescued from the bedroom closet as a result.
What GEOS still makes me yearn for is that sense of stasis, of having arrived at the technological mothership, where we won't have to wander the galaxy, looking for new resources to exploit and colonize.
GEOS offerred up a picture of that stasis, a vision of productivity accomplished through the stability of an elegantly thought-out operating environment -- but unfortunately it was only a picture, a pretty box shot of how life should be, as perfect as a living room arrangement in the IKEA catalog.
