I've always wanted to start a website to contribute back to the Newton
Family, but I wasn't sure what value I could bring. I think that this might
be where I begin!

I'm considering the creation of a master dbf of Newton's, much the way that
my Toyota 4x4 group has done. They have an input page that enter your VIN#,
Mileage and the personal information you want to give about yourself.

So, let me ask the group - would anyone add their Newton MP's to such a dbf?
If so, what data would you be willing to submit? At a minimum I would want
the model# and serial# of the unit, any additional information would be
voluntary.

Hi,

I'm new to this list so if this is answered somewhere, please point me in
the right direction. My question is this: How many Newton did Apple produce
and is there any estimate of how many are still in service? I'm not doing
any market size survey--I'm just curious. I essentially gave up on the
Newton 10 years ago (except to play solitaire) and now I'm finding that
there is a very vibrant Newton community and a device that fits very nicely
into the "modern" world even if one hasn't been produced in 7 years or so.
TIA,

oz

PS

Is there any way to repair scratches in a Newt (MP100) screen?
