Sorry to keep this thread open, but...
I'm an Amiga fan too! I also loved the original Mac OS and very impressed
with how NeXT's Openstep evolved to MacOS X (I also have a NeXT colour
station). Also a Linux fan, but couldn't care less for Windows.

This now raises an interesting question: Is there a Newton Connection kit
for any platform outside Classic Mac OS and Windows? I've just rediscovered
the Newton recently and want to get back into using it and I would rather
not connect it through a Windows PC. I also have a 2100 and a Orinoco
Wireless PCMCIA card that I still have yet to figure out how to get
working. Mind you, I haven't had that much time to really work on it...
(Good thing I brought the thread back to the Newton? :) )

Regards,
   Tony.
