"...all the missteps, pettiness, politics, reverse decisions..." And just HOW is that any different than the Apple of today? Only that today's Apple can more easily steamroll over the resellers, repair shops, and the customer base with no regard for quality, usability or repairability. They pretend to be so 'eco-conscious' all while manufacturing expensive throwaway products exploiting people on both ends of the chain.
Considering how Steve Jobs intentionally and wilfully kneecapped and destroyed the Apple IIgs, it's good that he suffered some level of defeat as well. Nowhere enough, but some.
I remembered seeing those Lisa systems for sale back then, and it was one of various systems I wanted, but wasn't even close to having enough money. The idea that they were intentionally destroyed makes me angry, as that means it would be that much harder to get one now at a reasonable price.
