Well, I guess the Newton is already armed and dangerous. Just a few
weeks ago Isaw a newsgroup-thread about a guy here shooting a Win2k
Notebook to the BSD just by pointing his Newton's beam-ray at its
IR-Port. I asked whether he had to use special software on the
Newton, but apparently the Newt is set to kill by default. I lacked
the opportunity to find proof for this since then, but if it does
work it would really be a WOZ kind of feature.
