[comp.sys.apple] Mac Lisa XL

    My dad has a Mac Lisa XL sitting in his office, which when purchased was
top of the line merchandise back then.  Well with the onset of newer and faster
machines he has attempted to upgrade; MacLisa to MacLisa XL (more like the
pioneering Macs).  I was wondering if there is anyway to upgrade it again to
have (near) the speed of a Mac plus or SE?  I've talked to a dealer in town and
he was quite suprised that anyone still used such a machine.  When I tried to
get an estimation as to how much I could sell it for, the salesperson told me
that it wasn't worth the effort.  Is there any place that I might be able to
trade in this model for another?  The computer is in great shape, but my dad
would really like to upgrade to a computer that would handle CADD a little
faster.  Is there still a market for the MacLisa?
