> For serious Lisa programmers, the LISA TOOLKIT was the development
> environment. It came with lots of documentation (2 large notebooks worth)
> and all the source code too. I have both the documenation and the source
> disks (I plan to scan the documentation at some point).
>
> For a great history of the Lisa see Owen Linzmayer's books "The Mac
> Bathroom Reader" or "Apple Confidential". Owen did a great job gathering
> facts from the original people, not from inaccurate 2nd hand accounts in
> books or articles which is how most computer histories seem to be made.
>
> I also have a CD filled with lots of Lisa info (ISO 9660 format compatible
> with both Mac and Windows). I am in the process of creating a 2nd CD that
> will contain all the Lisa Office System 3 user manuals and many other
> things (this CD will be finished over the Christmas holidays). I can make
> copies of these 2 CDs for US$10. Or, if you have some Lisa materials I
> don't have I can trade these CDs for copies of the materials. If you're
