Nice. Hadn’t run across that company before.

Yeah, it’s one of those sites that requires regular visits to see what’s been added to the inventory.

I’ve had luck finding various replacement parts using DV Warehouse.

This is bringing back so many memories of using MacLynx on my Quadra 700 back in the day. Can’t wait to try it again (on that same Quadra, in fact!)

It was an honour to be part of this film. Noah did a great job pulling together so many different people involved with the Newton.

Very nice. Works great under High Sierra. Will be doing some testing on my older systems as well. Only spotted one small rendering glitch so far. The text overlay in the search box of GitHub’s beta global navigation is a bit wonky.

Donated as well. It was a no brainer.

Congratulations, everyone!
