What's ironic about all this is that only the Newton was ever so
maligned for its HWR!!! I mean, cartoons, cameos in Bart Simpson, etc.!
It's amazing that even today, when people who have heard of, but not
used a Newton mention it, they always malign the HWR, yet, it is
_still_ light years ahead of anything else, both in actually
recognizing HWR, and utilizing the pen interface for editing, etc.
Nothing touches it. . . nothing. . . go figure. . .
