READ ME FIRST: The intro is long. Let it buffer for 5 minutes to skip directly to the Lisa demo. Please visit my sponsor: http://www.SolidNutrition.com Subscribe to me on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/adiblasi Filmed in 1984, Alfred demonstrates the $10,000 Apple Lisa computer on a tri-state
cable channel. This was a very early 'mass introduction' to a system that had a graphical user interface, icons, pull down menus, and a rodential input device called 'a mouse.' Enjoy! Alfred

yeah, they introduced a whole bunch of stuff too: pull down menues for example.

Thats why xerox is left with printers and paper lol

True, they invented the pull down menus as well. The problem with Xerox was, that they only wanted to develop the GUI for some experiments. Their market was somewhere else.
