I'm looking for a personal computer sometime next semester but I think that I need lisp. It seems I've become addicted. Does anyone have opinions on currently available lisp systems? I have seen promo literature for Life- boat's stiff upper and mu/LISP, and Datapoint? app-L-LISP and Datapoint?'s version of this for the Atari. Why doesn't someone use a LISP instead of a BASIC as a first interpreter for their hardware? Isn't LISP more intuitive and powerful for about the same amount of resident space?
