Windows for Pen Computing was released in 1992.
- criddell 9y agoGood point. I guess I would respond with the difference being that Microsoft developed the technology continually during that time whereas something like the Newton was a relatively short-lived product. For the record, I had a MP120 and absolutely loved that machine.
- jhbadger 9y agoYes, but Newton's OS had nothing to do with MacOS, being a completely independent system with its own API and even programming language (Newtonscript). Windows for Pen Computing was Windows.
