I have a similar machine which I would call identical except for the
green-screen. All the "prototype" markings that the auction makes
mention of I have seen seen on my Lisa, as well as the only other one
I've seen. I believe these markings to be common, and that the screen
was a replacement job by a 3rd party. Is this guy misinformed or am I?
Mine has the 'PTA Prototype' markings on the inside of the
front cover as well. From talking with other's it would appear that
those markings aren't uncommon. The thing I always found interesting
was that even though earlier Lisa 2 and 2/5's weren't intended to use
the internal Widget hard disk due to the lack of internal connector
for it, the faceplate still has the drive access light window for it.
