Might actually be truthful. Trademarks are only good if you enforce and defend against any trademark infringement (for a great story about this - see the coffee-table book about the history of MAD magazine, and the precursors to Alfred E. Newman).

As Apple apparently doesn't care what happens to Newton stuff and Newton-related Apple-branded software, maybe the logo is fair game.
