I know. In a lot of ways (at least at an architectural level), Mac OS didn't fully catch up to the Lisa OS until the release of OS X, which is pretty crazy to think about. I'm hoping that this board will make the Lisa…
To be fair, the disk images are actually pretty tough to find. There've been a few times where I've spent a while looking for them because I lost the files on my computer and forgot where they were online. And that page…
Sorry, I was expecting it to be seen by like 50 Lisa enthusiasts, and so I didn't put much effort into making it look good. If I had known that it was going to be so popular, I would've taken more time to film it!
That "other unix" is probably UniPlus Unix, which we actually do have copies of, as well as its source code. It runs great on the FPGA-based Lisa too. Here's the source code: https://github.com/arcanebyte/uniplus And…
I do stuff that actually matters too! The FPGA Lisa is just a fun project that I work on in my spare time, but I'm also a PhD student and I like to think that I contribute useful stuff to the body of knowledge of…
Thank you! Yeah, the soft power feels really magical compared to other systems of the time. And not only can it turn itself on/off in response to a user request from the power button, but you can also set an alarm…
My interest mainly just comes from the Lisa's unique architecture, both in terms of hardware and software. As I learned during my LOS compilation efforts, the OS was quite advanced for its time, and many of the…
Hi everyone, I'm Alex, the creator of the LisaFPGA project. A couple people pointed me to this thread, so I figured I'd come over here and answer any questions that people might have. Let me know if there's anything…
