[NTLK] The MB@ is one step closer

The next step in the evolution of the Mac
into the next generation of Newton is for
Stevie to integrate the screen and the touch
pad. Having them split like they are in the
MB@ makes sense to get it to where it's
come, but to get it where it's going they
need to be combined--screen and touch
interface.

If the form factor were 1/2 scale, the portion
of the case with the screen was placed on a
table top or in your hand--horizontally--it
incorporated a touch screen interface, and
the portion of the case with the keyboard was
simply its cover, then that's the next generation
Newton.
