Large lot of software for the innovative Apple Lisa desktop computer, highlighted by eleven slipcased binders containing manuals and 5.25˝ diskettes for: Lisa Pascal (three disks in three binders), LisaDraw, LisaWrite, LisaTerminal, LisaCalc, LisaProject, LisaGraph, LisaGuide, and LisaList. Additionally includes 3.5˝ floppy disks for the essentially same group of software: LisaDraw, LisaWrite 1 and 2, LisaTerminal, LisaCalc, LisaProject, LisaGraph, LisaGuide, LisaList, and Lisa OfficeSystem 1–5. Also includes two Lisa 2 Owner's Guides, and a Lisa ProFile Owner's Manual, both in slipcased binders, as well as some affiliated packing slips, software registration cards, and installation instruction sheets. In overall very good to fine condition.
The inclusion of both 5.25˝ and 3.5˝ disks for most of this software is representative of the evolution of the Lisa: the computer was originally issued with dual 'Twiggy' 5.25˝ drives, which were expensive to produce and often faulty. Recognizing this flaw, Apple gave existing owners of the Lisa 1 the opportunity to upgrade, free of cost, to a single 400K Sony 3.5˝ microfloppy drive, which was then used in the Lisa 2.
