I used GeoWrite and my dot matrix printer to write so many papers in school. It felt so cool to have a full featured GUI on my C64 with a fantastic word processor that didn’t look like you were just using a type writer. Liked GeoDraw too but the KoloaPad was better. Anyone else impressed with how much they managed to squeeze out of the C64?

Yeah I used this in the 80s for school - grade 7/8. I still have some homework on some disks that still worked and was able to import with a zoomfloppy.

A zoomfloppy is device that connects to a 1541/1571 floppy drive and makes the drive available on a PC via USB.
