It is generally believed that the Apple Lisa is what

the Lisa that inspired Bill Gates, but that it was VisiCorp's VisiOn
software (remember that, yeah, me neither!). So my question is: Which one
was it? Was it Lisa or VisiOn?
What makes you think that it had to be one or the other exclusively?
As with most things, it probably was a combination of those factors and
several others.
