Minor correction: I wouldn’t call Newton an “internally popular product”. At least, working on Newton I didn’t feel that way. And just before SJ came back, Apple had spun Newton out into a separate company because it wasn’t really fitting in. SJ spun it back in and killed it.

Would love to learn more about Newton - history and/or tech. Any resources on the web or anything interesting you may want to share?

Check the Dylan thread, which was supposed to be the systems language for Newton OS,

Or just reach out for the Newton documentation, scattered about some sites,

Thanks for the correction - I’d entirely forgotten that Newton got spun off!
