WallStreet assault

I think we're all quite confident that WallStreet PowerBooks will be a big hit. But after these laptop take over the Mac market by storm if Apple could put a PC board in the sexy WallStreet enclosure and sell them as Apple branded PC laptops can you imagine how many of those Apple might sell?

blasphemous ...I know, but I think it'll allow Apple to dominate the laptop market within a year or two. Imagine that all the money Apple spent on Newton over the last 7 years were used to produce a quality Apple branded PC laptop instead. We could have own the entire laptop market by now. Don't get me wrong, I own a Message Pad 2000 and love the Newton, but I think producing PC laptops with Apple's trademark of industrial design would have done wonders to Apple's pocket book.
