Ok, this is from a month ago, and the 'mention' is rather
disparaging, but I thought I'd point it out anyway. I just get so
miffed when the Newton gets mentioned in the same breath as Microsoft
Bob. Feh.

" Looking back on a year's worth of IT trends gives some indications
   as to what might matter in the 12 months ahead. Admittedly it's no
   more than a guessing game, since the majority of big IT ideas
   ultimately wind up losers and long forgotten. Think of the Larry
   Ellison 'thin client', the Apple Newton, Windows Millennium Edition,
   switched token-ring technology and BOB (the graphical user interface
   add-on for Windows 3.1). "

Whatever.
