  • splorp 23 days ago | parent | on: How many BeBox can you have in one room?
    I still have my BeBox … plus a prototype case. When the boxes were first shipped to some developers, the case design had yet to be finalized. When the final case arrived, you swapped the motherboard and cards from the prototype to the new case.

    I’ve been hesitant to post Wikipedia stuff as well, but I’ve never run across such an extensive list of date related bugs.

    Although, I will have to add a few missing entries related to Newton OS.

    Years ago, there was a documented issue when attempting to sync a Newton device with modern PCs (unsure about Linux) over serial, where the default port speed to too fast for the sync software to handle. The solution was to use a slowdown.exe package

    This will be a handy addition. I’ll likely go back through my previous posts and add the year (where it’s possible to determine, anyway).

      Any application that can be written in JavaScript, will eventually be written in JavaScript.
