Rrrr. Back around 1982 or 1983 I owned an Apple //c. I remember DOS 3.3
and ProDOS vividly, of course, but towards the end of my relationship with
that platform I also remember a GUI-of-sorts that ran on top of ProDOS,
just like Windows 3.1 ran on top of MS-DOS.
What I _can't_ remember is what that was called or whether it was an Apple
product. I just remember thinking it was really cool. ;)
Can anybody help me out?
