Nick,
I have been wondering this myself.
After all this time, and all the amazing things the CoCo CAN do, why has no one made a Viable GUI for OS9/ NirOS9?
I look at the Amiga, and Workbench 1.0 booted on as little as 256K on the original Amiga 1000. OK, so the CoCo 3 is nowhere near the Amiga 1000"S power, but even the C64 had GEO's.
We need a "workbench" like GUI that can drop to a command line for the CoCo, that can boot straight from a floppy (or 2) . I know if I had even a bit of programming knowledge , I think this would be a priority,
But I guess because we have lived so long without one, nobody cares anymore.
