Hi Forrest

There was an Apple staff member who said as much at the time, particularly in laptop sales.  But with hindsight, without MS Office and pdf support it could never be a realistic professional workhorse competitor.

I've come to the conclusion that the Newton was SO advanced that there was a legitimate fear that it would cut into Mac sales...along with the very real fear that Apple could be competing against the company it created itself (Newton Technologies).

This, of course, is IMHO. ;)

Thanks,
