I'd just like to do some fun stuff with it... LIke write a few
applications or something.
Being able to see the source to the OS would be nice... and helpful
considering the almost complete lack of documentation.
I'd like to write a driver for the asanti scsi enet card and a tcp/ip
stack. Of course, being a stupid database programmer guy, I'd have
no idea how to do it, but learning would be fun!
I also learned to program in Oregon Software Pascal II (on a
decwriter hooked up to a pdp 11/70) so seeing a whole OS written in
Pascal (and assembly I bet) would be really interesting.
I think you'd have better luck asking Woz. But I bet they wouldn't
let him do it. ...
I'll start an online petition. Anyone want to help with the
resurrect lisa website? Oh God, not again. So many projects, so
little time....

Then couldn't someone have preserved all of the software one can
run on a Macintosh XL?
