The Macintosh at 10
A blast from the past from the Byte Magazine archives. This article by Tom Thompson is from February, 1994.
The intro:
"Regarded initially as a "toy," it's obvious today that the Mac changed the direction of computing for the better."

The Mac SE Support Pages
Some handy information for SE owners, and others.
"This is the page for people who like to squeeze the last bit of toothpaste out of the tube, and the last ounce of performance from their ancient Macintosh SE, a late-80s machine with Motorola's 68000 CPU and a 9 inch black and white screen."

The 68k Macintosh Web Server Directory
Last Friday we told you about a cool Newton Webserver Tracker. Well today we've found this directory of 68k Macs hosting sites!
The intro:
"Welcome to the 68K Macintosh Web Server Directory. All of the web sites listed here are hosted by "obsolete" Macs that, for one reason or another, have managed to avoid retirement. Some are cherished heirlooms, still under the loving care of their original owners, whilst others have been snatched from the jaws of oblivion by dumpster-diving fanatics and pain-stakingly rehabilited. Either way, the inescapable conclusion is that these old Macs are still productive citizens of the internet and should be treated with the respect and dignity they deserve..."

Anderson begins by recounting the promise of the original 1984 Ridley Scott-directed Macintosh commercial, and then compares the then recently released product to that promise. Interesting!

Gloom and Doom for the Newton MessagePad?
This is a semi-hidden page at the Walletware.com site on the "Future" of the MessagePad. It begins:
"Considering the recent announcements regarding the death of the Newton OS, we're concerned with the attitude of the 'Chicken Littles' assuming that Apple may be doing a 'bad' thing, assuming that the MessagePad itself has been killed.
Having been involved with the Newton industry as Newton software publishers and developers since 1993, we (WalletWare, Inc. and Balcones Software) feel compelled to attempt to shed some positive light on what Apple may be attempting to do in the handheld and palm PC industry. And if our guesses are correct, it's not all bad, folks!!"
