Technically, not NCU - it was always available for retail sale for 120/2.0
and 130 owners. It may even still be (although, looking at the current
situation on the 'net, I doubt anyone's bought a copy lately).

Newton Press is different - It has been released for free on Apple's FTP
site.

We've decided to ignore the Apple bits for while until we recieve word
from them.
