PowerBook and Newton are both hanging off a 4-port 10-BT hub. The uplink
goes downstairs to a 4-port 10/100-BT switch/router. But ... things seem to
be working much better now. I've just imported several large RTF docs into
Newton Works from the Mac and last night's troubles are gone. I haven't
changed anything, but I guess the planets are aligned differently.

Wish I could figure out what was messing it up before so I could help the
next person.
