Hello, and that was true for the first GEOS version (1.x).  The later
2.0 version allowed for color icons (red for system files, blue for
apps, yellow for BASIC programs, etc) on the Desktop and I have some 3rd
party GEOS games that use color.  I've also got a collection of geoPaint
pictures (a few in monochrome) that even today still look impressive on
an old C= 1701 monitor.  Sincerely,
