	Steve Jobs is a wondrous man:  he had only to announce the
Mac XL, and instantly the Lisa 2/10s all over the country were
transformed into Macintoshes.  Apple did not change *anything*
about the Lisa when it was announced as the XL.
	However, there is supposed to be a fix for the video
board to alter the screen to be closer in size to the Mac.
As far as I know, the XL was out of stock before it became
available, so it is a modification you must get later, not
something that would have been shipped if you'd bought a newer
machine.
