The SE/30 is a speed demon compared to Newton doing web stuff.
Especially if you have upgraded to 128M of ram, and that 50MHZ DIIMO
card.....
I do like and use Newtscape on occasion, I can download the Seattle
bus schedules and then save them to newton works which is pretty cool.
Also the scheduled thing is great. I end up turning off all graphics
in somewhat successful attempt to speed it up and minimize the storage
used.
The wireless connection adds a new joy to this as well.
