It feels somehow wrong to me that Prais-Winston was published in 1954 while Newey-West was published in 1986...
Newey always feels like a bit of a lazy cop-out to me (Although I do still use it):
Yeah, we know OLS doesn't work real well with autocorrelation, but we'll just tweak the standard errors using some matrix algebra and everything will be fine.
Whereas Prais "feels" more responsible:

Quasi-difference the whole damn model. Oh and here is a (sort of sophisticated) way to come up with an efficient AR(1) parameter so you don't have to drop an observation.
If @Chris_Auld has any problems with this thread I want you all to know it's a big joke and I totally meant to misunderstand whatever it is I misunderstood.
