[NTLK] Did I miss the memo?

I was just going to send a query to the list about this same issue - if I remove all power and wait a bit, my Newtons will start up. And if I set the date up to 12/31/2024 things work fine. Any date past that, the Newt hangs and is unable to fully boot afterwards. 

So, just also saying "I have the same problem" :-)
