Unfortunately the Macs I have available are boats. :)
Of course I also have a A/V Mac I could spare that is of the
powerPc variety. That is not too too bad. I have the working monitor
and the special modem that went with it. =20
So worst case scenario, I could send the computer with a monitor
adaptor, or we could add keyboard, mouse, or monitor if you need them.
Nice thing about this slow boat PowerPC (It was one of the first
PowerPC's) is that with the special monitor you can have a dual display.
Max OS that can run on this computer is 9.1. (At least that I have
found.)
Anything else would definitely come as a monitor and computer
unit. All other Macs are being used at this time.

I actually got NTK working just yesterday by using an AsanteTalk
LocalTalk to Ethernet
bridge I had lying around. I plug my eMate into the box, plug the box
into the
hub, and enable AppleTalk via LocalTalk on the eMate. NTK debugging
works
(which made my attempts to learn NewtonScript much easier, thanks
guys!),
syncing works, and everything generally functions just fine between my
eMate
and my G5.
Of course, this probably would work if you have a network card and
network topology
that support AppleTalk, too.
