DeskMate in 1988 came with my family's first computer, a Tandy 2000 TX. One of the first mainstream consumer PCs with a 3.5" disk drive. (We had to later buy a 5.25" drive in order to share software--er, I mean data--with our neighbors.) DeskMate was marketed as, "Finally! No need to use complicated MS-DOS!" Of course, you couldn't _really_ use it for much, as MS-DOS programs of the time were much more powerful and interesting, but it was a nice tech demo I guess.
