That's odd. Usually there's a link. Oh well - all I did was click the
"Download" link in the navigation graphics at the top of the page, and
search for "newton and hp" and found:
http://asu.info.apple.com/swupdates.nsf/artnum/n11200
>Speaking of which, any pointers to something like "GDT Printer drivers"?
I believe that's the Newton Print Pack (I think GDT made the driver
and/or the cable that some of the drivers need -- a serial to parallel
adapter). But some of the drivers don't require it.
You can find it the same way I found the HP stuff. Search the Search
Apple Software Updates for "newton and hp".
Here they are:
Mac: http://asu.info.apple.com/swupdates.nsf/artnum/n10714
Windows: http://asu.info.apple.com/swupdates.nsf/artnum/n10715
Might be useful to search both the Tech Info Library and the Software
Updates pages for "Newton" and "eMate". Also search their Manuals area:
http://www.info.apple.com/manuals/manuals.taf
there are lots of Newotn manuals available in PDF format. These are
links that every Newton owner should have bookmarked. Also their Newton
tech support message boards:
