The amount of goodwill and comments that poured forth from the Mac community when Newer Technology closed their doors was fairly amazing. Few companies can claim the kind of customer loyalty that this particular company had. We got a note from a former employee alerting us to the fact that Newer Technologyis Web site, the last public vestige of the company, has apparently gone away too. We thought his comments to be poignant, and decided to share them with you:
A note in passing:
The once popular and busy Web site of the now defunct Newer Technology is gone forever. The www.newertech.com site had been open for months following the companyis demise in December, 2000. There was an auction to sell off Neweris property this week, and the server must have fallen victim to the auctioneeris gavel.
Rest in peace, Newer. And thanks for the upgrades.

We will second those thoughts; Rest in piece, Newer. Thanks to Observer David for the note.
We would like to point out that Newer Ram is a separate company, split off from Newer Technology years ago, and is still in happy business today. They have also bought the excellent utility Guru from Newer Technology and are distributing it from their Web site.
