| | Macintosh XL - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Macintosh XL was a modified version of the Apple Lisa personal computer made by Apple Computer. |  | | In the Macintosh XL configuration, the computer shipped with MacWorks XL, a Lisa program that allowed 64k Macintosh ROM emulation. |  | | The Macintosh XL had a 400k 3.5" floppy drive and an optional 10 MB hard drive. |

| | Apple Macintosh - Open Encyclopedia |
 | | Macintosh, now known simply as Mac in all official capacities, is a family of personal computers manufactured by Apple Computer, Inc. of Cupertino, California, USA. |  | | The Macintosh project started in early 1979 with Jef Raskin, who envisioned an easy-to-use, low-cost computer for the average consumer. |  | | Existing Macintosh software that had been written for the 68000 series CPUs -- including some large sections of the Mac OS -- were made to run with a software emulator. |

| | Macintosh Support |
 | | Macintosh XL and 128 computers are not supported since they do not use the Appleshare networking software. |  | | Macintosh computers may use LocalTalk, TokenTalk, FDDITalk, or EtherTalk to talk at the data link layer of the network. |  | | Therefore Macintosh cannot access file names created on the NT environment that are longer than 32 characters but NT autogenerates 8.3 length file names to overcome this problem. |

| | Macintosh computer |
 | | The Macintosh computer was released in January of 1984, with 128K RAM of memory. |  | | Except for the very expensive and unpopular Apple Lisa which came out in 1983, the Macintosh is considered to be the first commercially successful computer to use a GUI (Graphical User Interface), as seen above. |  | | Most modern-day computers now operate on this principle, including modern Apple computers and most others which run the Microsoft Windows operating system. |

| | Compatibility: Why & How |
 | | Compatibility across all Macintosh computers (which may sound like it involves more work for you) may actually mean that you have less work to do, since it may not be necessary to revise your program each time Apple brings out a new computer or System file. |  | | On the Macintosh XL for example, a lot of the hardware is found in different locations, and in some cases the hardware doesn't exist. |  | | This will work on Macintosh computers from now until forever, so if you use this approach you won't have to revise your program just because the screen moved in memory. |

 | | When Steve Jobs discovered the Macintosh project, he literally took it over, altering Raskin's ideas to have this computer run with the same Motorola 68000 processor used by the Lisa, and to use the same complex but easy-to-use interface as well. |  | | Apple's objectives here were to introduce The Apple IIc, describe how it fit into the company's marketing strategy, show off new software that was made to work with the new computer, and emphasize that Apple was still firmly behind the Apple II line of computers. |  | | Raskin had previously begun his own design work on a computer that would be inexpensive and simple to use. |

 | | This can be a problem for users of both personal computer and Macintosh workstations, who use the same account for both workstations, because the Windows NT Server passwords can be 14 characters in length. |  | | This problem occurs because the Macintosh defaults to read-write access when it opens a file and encounters an error when the Macintosh user tries to open the file. |  | | The interface between the personal computer and Macintosh works well because Windows NT Server manages the differences in the file systems behind the scenes. |
