LISA: the "LISA invented silly acronym" computer that
Steve Jobs named after his daughter, which he didn't
recognize at this moment of strange and
misguided affection.

LISA was the computer in-between the hackish and
social Apple 2 (which Steve Wozniak built), and the
posh, pre-chewed, and all-Jobish Macintosh which was
supposedly stylish and minimalist (that was true at
least with respect to software as there were only
MacPaint, MacWord, HyperCard and [Beyond] Dark Caste
and a few more programs to run).

LISA was much more powerful than the Mac but failed
miserably which is why the Apple people put into the
LISAs a Mac emulator which made it possible to run Mac
software. Then they rebranded LISA "The Mac XL" which
in some ways was correct.
