This is my second posting of this.  Doesn't ANYONE out there have
a Lisa with UNIX on it???  I have received a couple of indirect
pointers to information that I am following up.  I'll post the
results in a week or so.
----

I am thinking about buying an Apple Lisa-2 for my very own UNIX machine.
(I can get a very good price on any configuration.)  However I know
practically nothing about the machine.  This is a query to obtain information
from real live Lisa-2 users.  I will post a summary to net.micro of
what I get and am free to quote.  Thanks for your help.  Some questions:

What UNIX do you have and what do you think of it?

How is the support?

Can you reconfigure it? (Relink it?)

Can you run Apple software off the cassette and/or selectively boot
UNIX/Apple software?

Does the basic Lisa-2 come with an integral disk controller?

Is the disk interface something standard or is it a roll-your-own?
Can I plug in a Maxtor with mucho storage, or similar, into
the Lisa?

How is the performance?

Do you like it?
