The cultish Tao of Newton

May 7th, 2009

InfoWorld.com calls the Newton Tribe a “tech cult” in its “True believers: the biggest cults in tech” post.

Dave Caolo at The Unofficial Apple Weblog says there’s a membership cost into this cult:

Newton ownership is definitely not for everyone. it’s big and takes some doing to get it to cooperate with contemporary hardware and software. But for the faithful it’s a terrific piece of hardware.

InfoWorld calls Newton users the “most slavishly devoted tech cult of all,” and features other gadgets like Palm PDAs and Commodore 64s.

We’ll take that as a compliment.
