It's essentially a box with a hard disk designed to be attached to the laser printer and Appletalk.' The 'Turbo Mac' will have a double-side SOny 31/2-inch drive and a "video out" connector. A "dedicated" hard disk connector may also be included. The Lisa will be repackaged possibly with 12-inch screen and detachable keyboard though it may be called a Mac of 'some sort.' "Reports have it that Apple intends to phase out the unsuccessful Lisa computer" Apple is also setting up its own in-house business sales force to go after the business market against IBM with more success they hope.
