The Lisa used a 68000 running at something like 8Mhz. Now that 68030-based MacII's are in production at ??Mhz, has anyone at Apple dusted off the old Lisa OS to see what it could do with a bit more horsepower behind it? I once saw a comment from someone who had bought a Lisa as part of an early Mac development system: "very slow, but *very* powerful". If my memory serves me right I think is was 4.77MHz. -- Real life: Thomas Tornblom Email: thomas@uplog.se Snail mail: TeleLOGIC Uppsala AB Phone: +46 18 189406 Box 1218 Fax: +46 18 132039 S - 751 42 Uppsala, Sweden
