Today for #MARCHintosh I setup my Newton eMate to sync with my Mac and installed a few packages. Any recommendations on software / games to install? #newton #retrocomputing

@jonschwenn @Eggfreckles I had a Columbo mystery game for my MessagePad. That was pretty fun.

@jonschwenn Yes, you should definitely install Moon! (It's a moon phase calculator for Newton. You can find the .pkg on my share.)

@jonschwenn Surely @kalleboo will do a port of #Globaltalk Chat to the Newton (runs away). …that does remind me to try printing to some Laserwriters over #Globaltalk this #MARCHintosh from my eMate!
