"The Lisa project was initiated in 1978 to provide Apple's next
generation business computer. According to the original marketing
specifications, created in 1979, the computer bore little resemblance to
the computer that was actually released several years later. It's major
claim to fame was its inclusion of a bit sliced processor, but it became
clear that such a processor would price Lisa well above the $2,000 goal
that the marketers had set."
