Apple Newton bathroom story
Hi everybody. I was wondering if someone out there could help me out.
Back in the early 90's, there was a fictional short story circulating about a man with a Newton and a leather Newton belt holster who goes to a buffet and has a terrible bathroom experience. It was hilarious!
I've scoured the Internet these many years, and can't find it. Do you, or any of your "Vintage" community remember this story or, pray tell, have a copy? Or do you know who I could ask?
Thanks.

Re: Apple Newton bathroom story
I think I know the story you're on about, but I've never read a version involving a Newton.
How did the PDA play into the story?

The Newton is what made the story so funny. I wasn't aware of other versions. In the one I'm looking for, the character keeps mentioning his Newton and his belt-mounted leather Newton holster.

Re: Apple Newton bathroom story
google the summary.
And if that doesn't work, post it here so we can see if anyone recognizes it.
Thanks for clicking.
