Hey Matt,
I'd be particularly interested in how you go about working with
this "new" Newton of yours. I too have a Newton 2100 with a screen
that's stuck in the "Align Stylus" loop. Since I still have an
additional working spare Newton, I have not tried to tackle tinkering
with this one's screen yet. I have no experience beyond installing a
SER2000 (or whatever they're called) into my other Newton. Please keep
the list informed with how you go about making this Newton useful.
Thanks,
George
