Apple Personal Computer, Lisa II, 1984-1985
01
Artifact Overview
The Apple Lisa is the first personal computer to successfully promote the Graphical User Interface. GUIs made computing accessible. People could use a mouse to click on task-specific icons, rather than typing instructions into a text-based command line. The Lisa II is similar to the Lisa I, with a lower price point and a smaller, 3.5" floppy disc drive.
