Is it really a computer if it doesn’t have 12 different IP addresses? (Or I guess 14 if we add link-local IPv6 addresses…)

Finally got a chance to read @mwichary’s great piece about Gorton (https://aresluna.org/the-hardest-working-font-in-manhattan/) and now I’m on the lookout for it everywhere #gortonhunting

It’s a #MARCHintosh miracle, this MessagePad 110 that my friend gave me that used to belong to his dad’s friend is only minimally (all things considered) battery bombed, and powers up and works with external power.
An electronic device lays open on a bench. Around the battery contact and surrounding parts of the case are fuzzy blue-green bits, the signs of a leaking battery. The MessagePad on the same bench, but screen up and powered on showing it running NewtonOS 1.2.0, with a power cord plugged in to the lower right corner.

Is this anything?
The Drake Hotline Bling meme, but it’s Darthon from the TNG episode Darmok, and the captions both read “Kevin, when he made his family disappear”
