If money was no object, I think I would create my own startup. I would hire
Steve Capps and Walter Smith, for a start, then would probably try to bring
Paul Guyot, Steve Weyer and Sean Luke on board, because they have been the
most tenacious people to develop for the Newton.
Then, I would direct everyone to use the Newton OS as a start, but to come
up with a better implementation. Version 5 of the Newton OS, if you will...
So, the conception part would probably be around 40-50 millions, though...
