Gregory's Server@NanoRaptor Maybe! In our timeline I'm convinced that Palm stomped Newton because Palm was pocket sized and Newton wasn't.

@gruber @gparker @NanoRaptor Although I think Apple Vision Pro definitely has a case of ‘not miniaturized enough’.  @jamesdempsey @gparker @NanoRaptor It does. But imagine what a similarly specced device from any other company would look like or weigh. You might need a monopod for support. Like: @jamesdempsey @gruber @gparker @NanoRaptor Or the iPhone. Or the MacBook “Air”. Feels like bigger is better nowadays. @gruber @gparker @NanoRaptor There were a large amount of folks when I worked in the group that wanted to do a smaller one, but for reasons I don’t remember and weren’t a part of they went larger. |
@gparker @NanoRaptor I’ve always thought this was the biggest of all problems with the Newton. Kind of ironic too given Apple’s eventual obsession with miniaturization after the NeXT reunification. Never again.
