Macworld September 1993
John Sculley might have been on his way out of Apple (mentioned on this issue’s “MacBulletin” page), but the Personal Digital Assistant he had nudged towards the market (ready or not; the feature article on it was already mentioning “The Newton’s recognition software, developed by ParaGraph, a Russian company, is far from perfect”) had arrived at long last. As if to mark this, the typeface that had been appearing in cover subheadings for a year and a half took over the logo. Other new hardware from Apple included a bigger “all-in-one” model (but only available in the education market so far) and two high-end machines with extra hardware to offer audiovisual capabilities. In his back-page column, Guy Kawasaki mused that what he really wanted for a PDA was “a telephone with a computer, not the other way around” (although his Personal Telephone Assistant would be “the smallest length possible for a usable keyboard” and have “a trackmarble (as opposed to trackball) pointing device.”

MacUser October 1993
The two high-end Macs with special hardware (“finally,” disgruntled Amiga users and smug owners of specially equipped PCs might have said) to offer new capabilities (one article within was titled “Apple Phone”) received feature coverage in this issue. The Newton was examined in not quite as much depth but a little more skepticism. Some of the shareware programs promoted were the long-remembered Malestrom and BBEdit Lite. In his back-page column, John C. Dvorak speculated on rumours Apple’s management was looking into merging the company, and after running through possibilities including AT&T, Motorola, and Sony, closed with the briefer “NeXT. Too late now! High concept but will never happen.”
