    Remember when the Apple Newton “revolutionized” computing with handwriting recognition?

    No, of course not, because the whole thing sucked and vanished outside of old Doonesbury cartoons. LOL

      Then she went on to mastermind the behaviour and tactics of Myth: The Fallen Lords.

      It’s tenuous, but I say that’s causal.
