gasp

when @radiofreelunch extremely generously offered to send me a "couple" old Newtons, i balked. i had an old MP2100 years ago, and it was tough to get software loaded on them, even with all the correct hardware

driving home an hour later, i thought: what the hell is wrong with me, i'm turning down a free newton?! 😅

a week later, this amazingly heavy bundle of Newtons and Newton peripherals arrived. thank you good sir :D

Pictured:
Newton MessagePad (+box/software)

Newton Message Pad 110
Newton MessagePad 120

Newton Fax Modem (battery-powered!)

there is extensive battery leak/corrosion from the AA batteries on each of them, so they'll spend the next few months getting some TLC. hopefully most survive!

It must be a tiny minority of iPhone users who have any idea what this “Q” logo is that shows up when they open an audio file on the web or in full screen

Were there any old phones that could browse WAP over wifi?

Apparently, you cannot install After Dark 4 on a Japanese version of Mac OS 8.6.

Wait, region locking was a thing. :meowfacepalm:
