   Hello, and that was true for the first GEOS version (1.x).  The later   
   2.0 version allowed for color icons (red for system files, blue for   
   apps, yellow for BASIC programs, etc) on the Desktop and I have some 3rd   
   party GEOS games that use color.  I've also got a collection of geoPaint   
   pictures (a few in monochrome) that even today still look impressive on   
   an old C= 1701 monitor.  Sincerely,
