Marcio D. Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 TPUG (Toronto PET Users Group) is pleased to reconnect you with one of the most intriguing entrepreneurs of the mid-1980’s home computing era. Brian Dougherty was the founder of Berkeley Softworks, the company that developed GEOS (Graphic Environment Operating System) for the Apple II series of computers. GEOS and its ecosystem of products granted 8-bit computers the type of functionality previously only seen on more powerful computers, an ambitious feat that continues to be admired by retrocomputing fans worldwide. Brian Dougherty will be interviewed by Toronto-based UI Designer Lucas Gramajo. Mark your calendars! As always, you may also watch the event later by subscribing to TPUG's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@TorontoPETUsersGroup Date: Thursday, April 18, 2024. Time: 7:30PM ET.

lymontyme Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Awesome! I didn't know he also founded Imagic and had a hand in the forming of AOL. I remember him from a Computer Chronicles episode from 1988 (starts at 2:20 here): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
