  1. @nrmelnick It's most vintage Mac fans' favorite Mac - I'd say by far. I never had one, and I prefer the design of the original Mac, so I keep a Mac Plus (SCSI, ethernet) with the same design as my one early Mac.

  3. 1/3

    I added a new banner to LisaGUI’s homepage. The power button brightens a bit on hover, and fully turns on when the banner is clicked.

    In the future I really ought to take a photo with better lighting on the front, but this should be fine for now.

  4. In der Retrocomputer-Szene ist es mittlerweile durchaus üblich, historische CPUs oder ganze Computer per FPGA zu emulieren. Was einfach klingt, hat den Teufel natürlich im Detail. Deutlich wird das z. B. beim (letztendlich erfolgreichen) Versuch, eine eher seltene Apple Lisa nachzubauen: youtube.com/watch?v=2QSP9Qh0PvU #vintagecomputing #applelisa #fpga #retrocomputing

  6. Stumbled on this Lisa FPGA board being developed and apparently soon to be released on GitHub. Amazing work that I plan to follow and would love to have one someday!

  8. Added a "service menu" accessed by holding the space bar at startup. The option to reset display scaling settings has been moved here.

  10. This menu is now fully implemented. You will be able to access it by holding down the "s" key as soon as the system starts up.

    The first option, "Install Diskette," is the same temporary volume created the first time you start LisaGUI (or if no other volumes are present).

  12. An Apple Lisa 2/5 is now fully functional, except for a wonky keyboard that’s waiting for a foam and foil set from TexElec. I’ve wanted one of these since I was like ten. Words cannot express how stoked I am. #applelisa #retrocomputing

  14. 👩‍🏫🖥️ In this riveting exposé, we dive into the thrilling tale of learning tech with a relic older than your grandma's VHS tapes. Witness the birth of #GUIs through the eyes of the Apple Lisa, because clearly, nothing screams #innovation like reminiscing over a 40-year-old computer. 🚀✨

  16. "Die Seele der Menschen muss in ihren tiefsten Tiefen verängstigt werden."

    The late Udo Kier did a pop music song in 1985 ... starring #Apple #Macintosh and #AppleLISA computers: "Der Adler"

  18. For the next build, I've made some improvements to the way pixel-aspect-ratio scaling works. 3:4 PAR mode now displays pixels that are exactly 3px by 4px on a 2X high-DPI display.

  19. My #AppleLisaClone has a new front panel! I got one of the new Lisa 1+2 hybrid panels from Mac Effects, courtesy of @Recta_Pete

    I moved the iPad LCD panel over to it and added some custom 3D printed CRT bezel gap fillers to fit the curve.

  21. I just noticed today that the case for my #AppleLisaClone seems to be.. painted? It's lighter in color than the first front I purchased. I didn't really pay much attention to it at first but I noticed the HD activity LED light pipe was painted over..!

    I mean, it's not a bad paint job as far as these things go. But, why?

  23. A Miscellany
    I've had a number of ideas for big posts lately, but those all take substantial time to make and finish. But I want to post something, so here are the directions my explorations have taken me lately.

    Loadstar has a number of interesting things in it, including a trove of Print Shop clip art and (surprisingly) over 200 recipes. It's full of those kinds o

  25. It's not exactly retrocomputing but it kind of is. Someone has started a project to make an Apple Lisa-like UI that runs in the browser. It's not just a font/icon thing. The way you did things on Lisa was very different than how we do things nowadays. It was a document-centric not app-centric workflow. It's pretty neat and pretty faithful representation. At first I thought it was infinitemac.org project which runs Mac and NeXT emulators in the browser running the real operating systems. That too would be an interesting project for someone to explore. #RetroComputing #Apple #AppleLisa alpha.lisagui.com/
  26. Prima del rivoluzionario Macintosh (1984), l'Apple Lisa introdusse l'interfaccia grafica nel 1983 al costo di $9.995. Ora è possibile provare questa pietra miliare dell'informatica.
