Hi Brian,

I've never used the Windows build, and I don't know of anyone actively maintaining it. That said, I imagine it probably needs only minor tweaking from someone with Windows programming experience to bring it up to speed, since not much has changed in the front end over the years. 

Does it leave any kind of crash report behind that a developer could use to investigate?

Thanks in advance. I've been a lurker on Newtontalk for probably 10 years as my Newton interest has come and gone through the years.
