What speed is your Pentium III? I bet that it is too fast and NCU can't keep
the connection up. Try running SlowDown.exe. Start with the slowest
settings. Then, the next time, try increasing the speed, until it fails
again. I think it's in the FAQ, BTW <http://www.chuma.org/newton/faq/>.

dinosaur n.: 1. Any hardware requiring raised flooring and special power.
Used especially of old minis and mainframes, in contrast with newer
microprocessor-based machines. In a famous quote from the 1988 Unix EXPO,
Bill Joy compared the liquid-cooled mainframe in the massive IBM display
with a grazing dinosaur "with a truck outside pumping its bodily fluids
through it". IBM was not amused. Compare big iron; see also mainframe. 2.
[IBM] A very conservative user; a zipperhead.
