PC GEOS had no future because it was written in object-oriented 8086 assembly language. This made it very small and efficient but effectively tied it to that 16bit platform. When PCs moved to 32bit and protected mode with the 386 there was no hope for GEOS.
It continued to find a niche in handheld PDAs running x86 processors (I had one, the HP OmniGo) but even those types of computers eventually moved to 32bit ARM.
