  • Blast from the Past: Getting Started with the Newton

    Filed under:


    So how much ahead of its time was the 1993 Apple Newton? This video may give you a good idea. In a world where the Palm did not yet exist, where PocketPCs were still a dream, the Newton blazed the path that many other PDAs would follow. Handwriting recognition, transformation of sketches into high-quality graphics, device-to-device information beaming, and printing/fax capabilities were just some of the features that were built into the Newton. I still look back at the device and wonder what might have developed from it were it not rushed too fast to market, at the wrong price point, with unfinished and buggy software, especially when the world was just waiting for the right PDA. The right PDA turned out to be the 1996 Palm, with all its pseudo-handwriting Graffiti, lower price-point and less ambitious technology. What a pity.

  • Adult Swim Fix finally works with Macintosh

    Filed under: , ,

    TV Squad, our sister site, reports that Adult Swim Fix has finally achieved Mac friendliness. Adult Swim Fix, for those of you unfamiliar with the site, is a Cartoon Network broadband video site offering clips and full episodes of Adult Swim series. Not having a Mac, the poster Adam Finley couldn't test out the site. Poor man, he's stuck with a PC. So I headed on over to see what the site had to offer.

    It loaded without any trouble, and within a few seconds I was watching some obscure (at least I think it is obscure) Manga-style show named Trinity Blood. Just a click later, I loaded Tom Goes to the Mayor. Worked great. If you're an Adult Swim fan, pop on over and enjoy the new Macfriendlinessitude.
