Faithful Few Hold On To Apple Newton

from the take-it-out-of-my-cold-dead-hands dept

It's no secret that there is still a vehemently faithful crew of people who insist on using Apple Newton's - even though they were discontinued five years ago. Now, there's even a researcher who is studying the obsessive Newton community to figure out what makes them tick. Amusingly, he bought himself a Newton to understand how it worked, and it's now replaced his own Palm as well.

  1. Newton

    The Newton in the 2.0 form worked quite well.

    And I'd still be using mine, except I was able to interface a palm with a phone...and for the need I had it worked well.
