Page 18 The Analytical Engine July-September 1994 THE APPLE LISA COMPUTER: A RETROSPECTIVE (c) Copyright 1993 • David T. Craig1 CIS 71533,606 INTRODUCTION This paper is an attempt by a long-time Lisa user to clarify the significance of the Apple Lisa personal computer for the computing industry. The audience is anyone who has an interest in innovative computing technology, and wants to learn a little about Apple Computer's brief foray into this area via the Lisa computer. This paper hopes to show why the Lisa was significant in its time, and how some of what was called "Lisa Technology" is slowly migrating to other computer systems, notably the Apple Macintosh computer series. The author has never worked for Apple, and so is not privy to any "insider secrets" about this machine. All information contained herein was obtained from Apple's cornucopia of Lisa and Macintosh literature, from discussions with other Lisa owners, and through my personal involvement with and observation of both machines since 1984. This paper is loosely based upon the excellent article "The Legacy of the Lisa" (MacWorld magazine, Sep. 1985) as written by Mr. Larry Tesler, one of the Lisa's main designers and currently Chief Scientist at Apple Computer. A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY Apple began developing the Lisa in 1979. The Lisa's charter was to build a revolutionary device that was truly easy to use, and thereby mitigate the limitations of existing computers. Developing a computer which was an order of magnitude easier to use than traditional computers required several major departures, not all of which were obvious. Even the name "Lisa" has always been rather enigmatic for most computer users, including Lisa owners. To set the story straight (as far as I know) here are the facts: Officially, Apple states that "Lisa" stood for "Local Integrated July-September 1994 The Analytical Engine Software Architecture." Unofficially, "Lisa" has been associated with the name of a child fathered by one of the Lisa designers.2 The Lisa had several design goals: * Be intuitive, * be consistent, * conform to the ways people actually work, * have enough performance to do the jobs that need doing, * provide an open software and hardware architecture, * be reliable, * be pleasing, and * fit into an everyday work environment. The Lisa was based on sophisticated hardware technology. The single compact desktop unit contained a 12-inch black-and-white screen, and two revolutionary floppy disk drives called "Twiggy" - after the English supermodel of the day, because she, and they, were so thin. The Lisa contained a Motorola 68000 processor and 1 megabyte of memory, expandable to 2 megabytes. Cabled to the Lisa's case were a keyboard, and a (then) uncommon peripheral called a "mouse," which was a key element of the Lisa's design. Apple introduced the Lisa to the general public in January 1983 at a price of $9,995. In April 1985, after only one and a half years, Apple discontinued the Lisa i…

The integrated software and user interface of Apple's Lisa by EDWARD W. BIRSS Apple Computer, Inc. Cupertino, California ABSTRACT In 1979 Apple began to develop Lisa, a workstation to enhance the productivity of office workers. The hardware was built around a Motorola 68000, a bit-mapped display, and a mouse. The user interface is intuitive, using real-world concepts rather than computer concepts. It is easy to learn, and provides for both novice users still learning the system and users that have mastered the system. The user interface is modeless and consistent. The uniformity of the user interface supports transferable learning—the ability to learn an operation once and apply it over and over again in another application in a different context. The user interface also supports data interchange among documents of the same or different types. This interchange of data, coupled with the multitasking operating system and the multiple windows of the Lisa, permits the use of several tools to perform a task that one tool alone could not accomplish. The Lisa user interface and its applications provide an environment that allows the user to concentrate on what is to be accomplished rather than on how to accomplish it. In this way, Lisa provides tools to improve the productivity of the office worker. 319 The Integrated Software and User Interface of Apple's Lisa INTRODUCTION Apple Computer formed the Lisa team in 1979 to develop a personal computer that would dramatically improve the productivity of typical office workers (professionals, managers, and their assistants). To accomplish this goal, a hardware and software solution radically different from current personal computer offerings was required. At that time, personal computers had the functionality but lacked the capacity, speed, and ease of use necessary to reach a market of users who did not want to learn the details of how a computer worked. Inspired by SMALLTALK1 the Lisa team developed a system that has the functionality and speed users require, and additionally has a common user interface that supports gradual learning and promotes interchange of data among the same or different applications. The combination of multiple tools with a consistent user interface and data interchange among applications permits the user to work with several tools concurrently to accomplish a particular task. LISA HARDWARE The Lisa is a Motorola 68000-based personal computer with 512 or 1024 Kbytes of main memory, a memory management unit, a bit-mapped display, a detachable keyboard, a mouse, a built-in 400-Kbyte floppy disk drive, and a 5- or 10megabyte Winchester disk (see Figure 1). This hardware provides the functionality, speed, and ease of use required to support the Lisa user interface. The 68000 microprocessor was not the first choice. Development began on a home-grown bit-sliced system to provide the computing power. When the 68000 became available in sample quantities, we evaluated it and found it had…

When you are creatIng a list, or adding columns to it, you can add more columns by pressing the TAB key from the header of the last column. Initially, LisaList displays a number of blank columns at the right of the Lts t (ten in the Create Table, five in the Add/Remove Table). If you have filled in all the columns, and you press the TAB key from the header of the last column, LisaList adds one more blank column. Data Formats to Avoid When you are creating a list, you should not use the data formats -9 or -99 for money or number data types. If you do, the values will not sort in the correct order. However, you can create the list using the default formats for these columns, and then later change them to -9 or -99.

R. Pol•er M. Karnaugh IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center Yorktown Helghts, N.Y. 10598 ABSTRACT: After a characterlzatlon of the work of offlce prlnclpals and a statement of some qualltatlve requlrements, the system concept called "Plctureworld" ls descrlbed. Plctureworld provldes the user with an understandable, self-promptjng lnterface whlch cilsplays lconlc r2presentatlons of famlllar offlce objects. It ls easy to learn and to remember how to command the system. Functions for an entry level system are deflned. A software organlzatlon ln terms of Plctureworld objects wlll facilitate maintenance and expansion of tl1e system. In view of large areas of lgnorance concernlng the acceptablllty and value of prlnclpal support systems, Plctureworld ls proposed 011ly as one con1po11ent of a larger progrant of research. * W. Schlld was formerly with IBM Israel. l· Introduction The anticipated widespread use of electronic systems to support the work of office principals will bring a very large group of non-programmers into frequent close interaction with information processing systems. Because the users will not be highly motivated to develop their programming skills, the design of principal support systems poses some special problems. Either the services offered must be stereotyped, narrow, and inflexible or else the user interface and the system software must provide much more competence in modeling the users' task environment and needs than has previously been attempted, The office environment already provides support devices that aid principals in stereotyped, narrow, inflexible and also non-integrated ways. These include the telephone, the file cabinet, and the hand calculator. The challenge faced by the information systems designer is to bring into being a class of systems that come much closer to meeting the principals' needs. This is not merely a question of good implementation; the functional requirements and cost-effectiveness tradeoffs are not yet well understood. This report includes a discussion of the principal and his work (Section 2), some of the qualitative functional requirements for effective principal support (Section 3), and in later sections, an approach to the designs of the user interface and the system software for a proposed experimental system. This approach will be called "Pictureworld." .. ' . We have not implemented a Pictureworld system and we make no cla…

What the Hell is this? · What this was This was a document called "'nte Lisa Theory of Operations Manual" from Apple Computer, Inc dated June 3, 1983. It consisted of photocopied pages (some a little fuzzy) describing the hardware of the Lisa 1 and was written using the editor of the Lisa Pascal Workshop. The drawings were hand-drawn and still had editing marks on them. There were no schematics, although they were referenced in the manual. At the time I got this, Apple was also sending a document called "Macintosh XL Hardware Information" which had additions/corrections for the Manual although it didn't include the major hardware differences between the Lisa 1 and Lisa 2. , What this is I didn't really like the state that the Manual was in. First off, it described only the Lisa 1. Secondly, the schematics were missing. Thirdly, the copy was poor and wouldn't copy any better if I wanted to send this to another of my fell ow Lisaphiles. Fourthly, some of the drawings would cause severe eye strain if you really needed to look at them. Fifthly, since the editor used to write the original used strictly ascii characters, some of the notation is a bit strange. . So I began the project of entering the Manual into Macwrite. This set of documents is the original manual with the original wording, right or wrong. I have added my own corrections and comments surrounded by square brackets for use in making the final version. I have corrected misspellings. By the way, I have NOT incorporated the changes/additions specified in the XL Corrections paper. I figure I'll get this Manual up to Lisa 2 standards, then put them in. I am also replacing the clumsy hand-drawn diagrams with my own clumsy Macpaint pictures. I may not win any art awards with them, but I think they're an improvement I have also replaced the notation of an active low signal from SIGN ALJ to SIGNAL with a modified Geneva-12 font which is included on this disk. I have also modified my Geneva to have the 0 with a slash through it so you can tell it from an 0 more easily. · What this will be Eventually, this Manual will describe not only the Lisa 1, but the Lisa 2 series of computers also: Lisa 2, 215, 2/10, and Mac XL. I hope to have or make schematics of these versions too. The Glossary, Table of Contents, and Index will be more fully worked out when the Manual has been completed. · 6:01:41 AM 10112185 Gary M.
