The Newton was the first piece of Apple hardware I owned. My employer worked out a deal with them for 50% off or something like that of a limited quantity. This was the early days of PDAs and people still carried around Daytimers. I quickly realized I had no use for any sort of PDA, and the thing didn’t even play chess (maybe later on there was a chess app). I sold it to another employee a couple of weeks later for what I’d paid for it.
