Also, I have a Profile harddisk that alledgedly goes
with the unit.
Without documentation, I see no place that indicates a hard disk should
be connected there on the Lisa. But the Lisa has one parallel port and
an expansion board with two more parallel ports. Does it connect to one
of these? If so, what cable is appropriate? (No cable) And to what
should it be connected?
I managed to pick up at a thrift today the Lisa 2 Owner's Guide and a
MacWrite/MacPaint boxed set. This last item is notable because in it,
along with all the retail pack MacWrite and MacPaint stuff I found a
shrinkwrapped MacWorks disk package and a receipt from Sun Remarketing for
a Mac XL ($995 + $3 shipping). Maybe the Lisa will show up tomorrow
morning, I must remember to stop by on my way to work. (:
Anyway: the picture in the back of the book shows the Lisa 2/5 with its
Profile disk stacked on top of the CPU and.. a DB25 ribbon. So it's
definitely straight-through. It is depicted connected to the internal
parallel port which the Lisa 2/10 lacks. (The manual states the 10 MB
widget drive plugs into an 'internal parallel port'.)
ok
