Actually, it depends on the lighting, and the brightness. The Newton's
paint is definitely a greenish black....but it's MUCH more black than
green.
In fact, I didn't notice the greenish tint to the black case on my
original Newt for some time. I think the first time I noticed it was in
bright sunlight.
The only true green Newton is the eMate. :-)
