Apple Lisa 2/10
Macintosh XL
Historical Context
The first commercial personal computer with a true graphical user interface, sold for $9,995 in 1983 — roughly $31,000 in today's money. Named, despite years of official denial, for Steve Jobs's daughter. Apple sold fewer than 10,000 before quietly writing off 2,700 units in a Utah landfill in 1989. Commercially, the Lisa was a catastrophe. Historically, it was the proof of concept that made the Macintosh possible.
