The reason Newdeal works so well on old hardware is that it is
based on old software that was very advanced for its time.
Geos offered long filenames, a superb graphical environment and
very advanced printing capabilities years before Windows. Plus
it is rock steady stable and runs on a 286.
New Deal has updated the Geoworks office suite and it really is a nice
package. Great word processor and desk top publishing package for
vintage hardware.
