I know you were joking, but ... as a 4th year physics undergrad and
astronomer, I can't resist!

Newton MP2100 dimensions:

1.257830992e-17 x 2.959602335e-18 x 2.219701751e-17 light years (approx)

Weight:

3.2e-31 Solar Masses (approx)

When you look at it this way, the Newton seems positively tiny!
