Making the Macintosh: Technology and Culture in Silicon Valley
From the site:

"Making the Macintosh is an online project documenting the history of the Macintosh computer. The Macintosh stands at a cusp in the history of computing and Silicon Valley: it brought together (and sometimes transformed) a number of technical and conceptual threads in computing that developed in the 1960s and 1970s, but it also was responsible for sparking new movements in computing. This project collects and publishes primary material on the Macintosh's development and early reception. It draws on the extensive holdings of the Stanford University Library's Department of Special Collections, the personal papers of engineers and technical writers involved in the Macintosh project, and interviews conducted for the project."

Newton Nuts Show How It's Done
Another article at Wired News by Leander Kahney covering events in the Newton world! This story begins this way;
"A committed band of fans has done a better job of looking after the Newton than Apple ever did, believes a leading researcher.
'They cover pretty much everything a good marketer would cover. They've taken on all the responsibilities Apple had: evolving the product, marketing it and supporting it,' said Albert Muniz, a marketing professor at De Paul University in Chicago."
