Hi Mike,
I think since you have mac's with serial ports, your best bet is to run
Newton connection utility and use a serial port to load software onto a
emate. When you have one setup the way you want, you could use NCU to
back it up, and then restore the backup to each of the other units..
Once you have software on the emate, you might also use ir from emate
to emate to transfer stuff... Although some programs prohibit this
activity (you are warned.
In any event, you certainly could use a teachers emate to send/receive
stuff with students.
Try looking through:
This is the motherload of Newton software. Probably you want to get
NCU first, as that will allow you to setup/backup your systems.
Hope this helps.
Marty
