The Newton OS was very innovative, along with its
GUI (it handles
cut-n-paste better than any GUI I've used---I wish more GUIs did it the
Newton way).
NOS is, like the Star, a very unique development. I think
(well I hope) there will be at laest some Mac like follow up
soon - PalmOS and EPOC is still like CP/M compared to NOS.
-spc (But I think this is straying a bit from Classic
Computers)
Thanks to Killer Steve NOS is already classic :( VCFe will have a
Newton Display, although the no Newton fits the 10 year rule.
