I suppose that people are having fun running up the polling numbers for the Newt, but the poll's question is not "What is the best PDA of all time" or even "What is the best computer of all time". The question is "Which was the most important PC of all time?". I personally tend to think that the machines that ignited the personal computing revolution, such as the Altair, are way more important than our beloved green friends. Without the Newton, there would be no Palm or PocketPC, but without those early Altairs and Apple IIs there would be no Newton. Just my 2 cents.
