A couple of weeks ago, I happened to run into a former schoolmate who used
to work with Apple India Ltd. - here's what she had to say "...contrary to
what most people believe (that Steven Jobs killed the Newton as it was John
Sculley's brainchild), the real issue was that it caused the PowerBook sales
to plummet! In the MP 2100, potential powerbook buyers saw a workhorse that
could do just about everything that most users would require, at a third of
the cost and a fraction of the weight..."
