I haven't seen this archived elsewhere and figured folks might enjoy it. Popular Science magazine from June, 1983 in the electronics section.
Forget all you know about running a computer: Now there's Apple's Lisa by Jim Schefter.
Forget all you know about running a Lisa as well? I wonder if Jim used a demo machine, took brief notes, and then waited a week before writing the article:

Interesting to see mention of the Epson QX-10: this Z80-based computer had a much more text-oriented office suite called Valdocs, which at least in earlier versions was substantially written in Forth. It was said to be very buggy.
The successor machine in the US market was the QX-16, one of those combo Z80 and 8088 machines that let you boot either CP/M or MS-DOS. I'm not certain just how PC-compatible it was, but I suspect not totally.
thanks!
