The Apple Lisa

Apple introduced the Lisa computer in 1983, becoming the company's first computer with a graphical operating system, simple copy-and-paste, and other innovations. Even though the Lisa was plagued by reliability issues and high prices, it was an important step towards the much more successful Macintosh.

Hosted by Corbin Davenport, guest starring Jacob Westall.
