Apple Lisa Xenix

It's about time that I took a look at an operating system for this blog. I'm sure that with the proliferation of today's virtual machines, many of you already took a go at installing some of the old popular OS's. However I want to link to something a bit different from a very old era from Microsoft (made for Apple hardware no less!) circa 1983.

I am talking about the Xenix OS for the Apple Lisa system, which is a Unix derivative for the Motorola-powered machine.

This two (and a half) year old post by neozeed describes how to install a running system via emulation in order to run some of the software available, mostly for computer history purposes I'd guess.
