  • Specifically regarding the Newton since that was Jobs' doing, the right path, as you point out, would have been to make the Newton smaller and cheaper. I'm confident that had they proceeded in that direction, they would have succeeded in leading the market instead of Palm and Windows CE. Integration with PDA's and mobile phones would have boosted the Mac far more than the iPod is boosting the Mac today. Phredd
  • The absolute biggest mistake Jobs made was cutting the Newton project. Imagine if Apple now owned not only the PDA marked, but the integrated PDA-Cell Phone market. This on top of Sculley's two major mistakes: cutting AppleLink (now AOL) and refusing to license the Mac OS. Phredd
