Before Macintosh: The Apple Lisa is a fascinating look into the computer that really changed the way we used personal computers; it started the modern personal computer revolution! Not only did key people from the project go on to help create the Macintosh, but so did key components of both hardware and software. In the end, Apple even converted the Lisa into a Macintosh-compatible computer, before canceling it altogether. Find out why it mattered then, and why it’s a valuable computer collectible now.
