- Hello :
- I would like to add my further support to the Newton newsgroup
- being formed. I do think Newton will be the name Apple keeps (One,
- the toy/machine is being called that so much already - Two, can you
- think of a more catchy name for the public?). Also, I think with the
- type of forums being held under the Newton newsgroup, a comp.sys.newton
- would be most appropriate. I am sure other PDAs will come down the pike,
- and in that case, a comp.sys.pda would be appropriate, however unless
- Apple REALLY bungles it, I think the Newton will stay as the most popular
- PDA due to company name recognition. Or in short, I do not think
- the newsgroup comp.sys.newton will be short lived.
- However, all in all, I will be happy when this newsgroup gets
- formed, no-matter what the name.
