Steve Jobs killed the product line after returning to Apple in 1997. He disliked the stylus and preferred using fingers for touch interfaces.
However, Newton's technology led Apple to create devices like #iPad and #iPhone later
#Apple#History
Not many of us might associate this revolutionary product line named 'Newton' with Apple Inc.
With one of the first interfaces featuring handwriting recognition, Newton created a buzz in the computing world.
#computers#History#nftart#NFTs
Unfortunately, handwriting recognition software in the early versions of Newton was buggy and did not meet consumer expectations.

Java was initially developed to be a programming language for interactive television and set-top boxes and was called 'Oak'.
We all know why it was renamed later π
