The Lisa, started in 1979 to provide an inexpensive business computer to Apple's line-up, enjoyed little success. With its advanced object oriented UI and powerful office suite, the computer was priced well above the means of most businesses. Despite its failure, the Lisa influenced most user interfaces, and introduced many features unheard of in earlier systems (like the Xerox Star or VisiOn).

I agree with the guys above. There seems to be a story on the history of the Lisa every fricking month. WE ALL KNOW THE HISTORY OF THE LISA NOW. It's over. It's done. Nothing new is happening. We only needed to read about it once.
