Getting some work done in the office today.

Oh, just typing a quick note out on my #appleNewton #messagePad

#apple #retro #retroComputing #messagePad2100

More good #Newton news, I can back up to a (virtual) MacOS machine, and #BasiliskII already mounts the host filesystem into itself, so this is way easier import and export using #virtualBox and Windows 3.11

Wonder what the last web browser for this OS was....

It's portable!

Made my own replacement battery sled thanks to https://github.com/app-hack/Newton-MP2X00-3d-printed-Improved-Battery-Pack/tree/main

Oh, just powering my #AppleNewton over USB-C

Well, that's going OK so far...

Now to get some really very thin metal sheets to make it actually electrically connect.

Oops just bought a Palm

Trying to find the ideal balance point between retro and usable.

#appleNewton 1.x is basically tethered, but tge Treo TX has WiFi, web browser...

Done it !

#appleNewton to modern laptop's #libreOffice via Windows 3.1 and #virtualBox

Holy shit it's moving.

Not sure #apple expected their #appleNewton tools to run in the 21st century. On #linux

#retro

It's really really alive !

Using VirtualBox, Windows 3.1 and a USB to serial adapter.

No joy under Wine as just crashes.

#retro #AppleNewton

/cc @newtontalk

It's alive!

Hope caps last long enough to back it up...
