  32. I remember the machine well and also cann't remember the name.  It had
  33. a few nice writeups but died before the machine is ever released.  The
  34. X Windows was the interface that they licensed to get around the Mac
  35. look and feel issue.  I think that the company's name began with "New"
  36. something or other.
