The Newton, It Was Just This Is the Future, Right?

The newton, that whole technology, when you look at at what it did for people, it was pretty incredible. But whereas the mackintosh, to me, was always this is the present, right? Like even in the eighties, when the mac was still dripping wet, brand new black and white monochrome displays. So much of its future was ahead of it. And i feel like that's mistake that the companies always are tempted to make, is to come out too early.
