Along those same lines, if they don't care, why don't they sell the
license to Newton Technologies?

Might actually be truthful. Trademarks are only good if you enforce and
defend against any trademark infringement (for a great story about this
- see the coffee-table book about the history of MAD magazine, and the
precursors to Alfred E. Newman).

As Apple apparently doesn't care what happens to Newton stuff and
Newton-related Apple-branded software, maybe the logo is fair game.
