A viewer of the last video asked how the mono output into a composite monitor would look, so here's one more quick and dirty video showing DesTerm and GEOS on a cheap TV.

My PC with the capture card was being stupid, so apologies for having to record a screen.

yep, C128 Geos was great. With a C-128D and a 1581 DD (ie 3.5" MSDOS compatible format) it kept me in the C64 architecture way into the IBM Compatible era; until mid 90s. What finally caused me to jump were better printers and faster modems that the C128/Geos combination didn't support.

I'm sure everyone would like to see more of GEOS128 on your commodore 128. Maybe start up some applications / installed software for it so we can see how the OS's applications work, their performane etc... There aren't many videos showing GEOS128 on youtube...
maybe run a paint program, a WYSIWYG word processor or a spreadsheet program or something...

Thanks so much for checking that out with Geos. Much appreciated! I went as got a db9 male connector, and built a composite cable today, but while I get a picture ok, it has a lot of interference. Anyway, I might try your method, and see if this helps. Again it might be enough, as monitors in OZ, are very expensive as you need to double the price for delivery. Thanks mate!
