I can remember when we had 2 Apple Lisas. The were slow (5MHz 68000 CPU) and the hard disk was connected over a modified Centronics parallel port. But wow it was fun. Then a Mac arrived. We have 240V mains in the UK and the US has 110V. We had Mac serial number 000005 in the UK and it came with a 110V autotransformer almost as big as the Mac itself. Mac development was done on the Lisa. Then sometime later a set of ROMS were issued that turned a Lisa into a slow Mac. And we had MPW running on it. Who remembers the comment in the memory map for the Mac, "6 bytes for our friends from Seattle"?
