If I had an Imsai, then yes, I would. The Lisa is a
much more interesting
machine to me...
:)
Btw: I'm still looking for any genuine Xerox Star. I own two
SIEMENS EMS 5800 class systems (5810 and 5822) - OEM Stars,
but I like to add a 'real' one to them.
And for your question - The Lisa is, compared to the Star
like Windows 3.0 compared to a Macintosh. A cheap surogat.
The differences arn't that big at first sight, but when
working the wohle day just these 4 kesy on the left side
are like switching from a Volkswagen Beetle to a Mercedes T.
Gruss
