something to do with the way the Newton OS stores it's data. It needs linear
flash, which I guess is more like RAM, as opposed to ATA flash, which is I
guess analagous to a hard drive. I'm not really sure what linear nor ATA
mean, but give it a try if you've got access to one. I could be wrong. Check
the Newton FAQs. I know one talks about memory types.
