Today, whenever Apple even hints at a new product, the press comes alive with speculation and fevered anticipation of what may or may not be. The reason why is simple. Apple has always been at the forefront of advancements in personal computing. What many people don’t realize is that before Apple reached the iconic status it now boasts, Apple was a struggling computer manufacturer with its fair share of ups and downs. Apple has had products which have had great success and products that have been complete flops, but every product has contributed to advancements in personal computing.

For this reason, every now and again we like to release repair videos on some of the older machines. Yes, there aren’t a whole lot of people repairing these anymore, but these videos serve as a history lesson of sorts to show how far technology has come in such a short period of time.

So today we’re releasing the next video in our Mac Repair video lineup; the Apple Lisa. For those of you that don’t know, the Apple Lisa preceded the Macintosh and was the first GUI personal computer. It laid out the blueprint for the Macintosh as we know it today.

Below you’ll find the embedded video which is also available on our Mac Repair Guides page.
