Apple Lisa changed computing 40 years ago, but the world didn't notice

Computer History Museum: The Lisa: Apple’s Most Influential Failure

 

The name was a too little too late tribute to the daughter he denied was his. No points for Steve on this. I think the world noticed. It was one of the things that led to his dismissal.

 

So Lisa had the last laugh?

 

Then good for Lisa.

 

BTW, I watched two movies about Steve Jobs, the one with Ashton Kutcher was pretty cool, the other one with Michael Fassbender was horrible, I didn't even finish watching it. I gave it one out of 10 stars.

I have to give him credit for doing a pretty good job ( or Jobs, ) but most of those movies are too short to really capture enough of what went on, both good and bad.

 

I think Lisa long garnered her place in history despite the snub.

 

The Steve Jobs (2015) movie was just so negative and a pain to watch. The Jobs (2013) movie was more upbeat and fun.
