A couple more LisaPoints (Zarquon! I've caught LisaFever): - Has Apple implicitly admitted that the one-button mouse was a mistake in the form of functions which require you to press SHIFT-<mouse button>? - There was a LISA running Smalltalk at the C-MU demo. Not being a Smalltalk fan, I didn't pay much attention, but I think it will not be marketed unless a miracle makes it much faster. The salesman said something like "The 68000 is not a good Smalltalk architecture; you really need a Dorado, and we were not interested in marketing a $180,000 Apple." - The impression I get is that the Profile was not supposed to be standard, but that the OS got so large, Apple was forced to throw it in. That crummy disk can't be too expensive; the most remarkable thing about it is that they still have a supplier for them. It reminds me of the PERQ's disk. Rich (decvax!idis!mi-cec!rwg at Ucb-C70) P.S.: Sorry if this is badly munged; I'm testing a new 'post' shell script.
