Are you referring to the 5-ton axle trucks(which were really Diamond Reo
trucks), tank assemblies or the various fuselages for aircraft Olds made for
the 2nd World War or the miscellaneous parts they make that makes up their
cars or the quad 4 engine? You lost me on that reference...

Subject: Re: [NTLK] How is the Newton a Mac?
heehee, funny ... no, not really.
Jobs stated when he killed the Newton division that a future PDA would
only make sense if it was based on the Macintosh, the Newton was not
based on the Mac, it was not a version of the Mac, it was its own
product, everyone arguing that the Newton is a Mac for this reason or
that reason obvious hasn't considered much of the obvious information.
The Apple //c isn't a Mac either, nor is the Apple IIgs or the Lisa ...
LaserWriters, not Macs, not even specific to Macs. Macintosh is a
computing platform that has made up the bulk of Apple's product
offerings for the past 20 years. Not everything Apple makes is a Mac
just like not every Oldsmobile is a car and not every Oldsmobile car is
a Cutlass.
Come on people, get it together.
