Check the FAQ (URL at the bottom of this message) where you'll find answers
to most of your questions, specially the connection. Alternatively, you
might find more answers at WikiWikiNewt
<http://guelph.unna.org/wikiwikinewt/>.

No, you can't print directly to your USB printer. I was thinking: would
using a Keyspan USB-serial adapter would work? Anybody tried this?

To connect your Newton to DSL, you need an Ethernet card in your Newton and
then you simply connect an Ethernet cable to your DSL modem.
