Launching Newton ToolKit. If you don't have a serial port, even if you're
planning to use Ethernet, NTK isn't as forgiving as NCU and will just quit.

On low-end personal machines without an MMU (or Windows boxes, which have an MMU but use it incompetently), this can corrupt the OS itself, causing massive lossage. Other frenetic dances such as the cha-cha or the watusi, may be substituted.
