ViewMAX 2 was available with DR DOS 6.0 (if you can find that OS somewhere). Unfortunately, ViewMAX 3, which looked a little bit like Windows 3.0, has only been available in the Panther beta test program - but it still might be released somewhen... However, you could try Geoworks' GEOS alias New Deal. A demo-version of New Deal Office for PCs running under DOS is available at New Deal's web- server (links to them can be found at the links pages of my web-pages). Actually, GEOS is more than a graphical multitasking shell, it has its own object-oriented APIs which allows to develop powerful yet small applications.
