Re: [NTLK] too Quiet on the List(Pippin)

Good thoughts. Because the Pippin is really just a 7100/66 with a cool ADB
controller, proper "living room" ports for peripherals and TVs, and a Mac OS
that's made "light", there is nothing stopping them from released a
specially configured Mac Mini in the same way in2009.

Except Steve Jobs...

If I was CEO at Apple, I would combine the Mac Mini, the Apple TV, and
the Airport Base Station into a single machine that goes into folks
living rooms and networks all media into what ever the user wants. It
is basically the same hardware anyways.

... and I would continue to develop the Newton... .
