The terms "GUI" and "text windowing" are not compatible, because GUI stands for /graphical/ user interface.

Well, when I was about 14 or 15, I remember entering text mode on an ancient 386 with a 256 color video card on a VGA monitor. I would then modify the character bitmaps stored in memory for full pixel-based graphics I thought it was a neat trick as I was involved in the Demoscene at the time So, technically, you *can* have a GUI with just text
