New subject: Kittyhawk drive (was Re: Classic != IBM AT)

3 Nov 1998

...

 It is to me.  I don't remember if the Newton or the Zoomer came out first,
...
  but it was certainly one of the first pen-based
PDA's.  I still use my
 Zoomer today because of the great battery life.  And GEOS runs pretty well
...
  on that slow 8088 -- try that with Windows CE!
  Yeah.  I can agree to that - I've had the batteries in mine for a year,
not, and it's still going.  Only problem is there's no backlight.

...

 The PC110?  The HD was a standard PCMCIA Type-III drive.  Try
 comp.sys.{handheld,palmtop}.  Or are you thinking of the Dauphin DTR-1
 (made by IBM) with the 1.8" KittyHawk drive?
  That must be what I'm thinking of.  I remember the name "IBM
KittyHawk".  I
guess that was the name of the drive, not the computer.  What was the
entire size of the computer?  From what I have been told, it was sotr of
like a fat PDA.
