Yes, the statement is 110% true. Like the iPod,
connections between the desktop and the Newt (using
ethernet) only work with the Mac OS.
If you want to play around, there is a Basilisk
emulator which is the most popular (and free) and
there is a complete 7.5.5 disk image (30+MB in size)
and Mac ROMS to be had at various places on the web. I
don't know off hand where they are (well, they're on
my laptop right now, but that's hardly accessible to
you and my thumbprint recognition card is currently at
work so I can't access my laptop now anyway) but I'm
sure that there are people on this list how can fill
in the missing pieces.
