No, its not because of that. An unmodified Lisa (aka Lisa 1) is much more
difficult to obtain than a 5100. The reason being Apple handed out free
upgrade kits to replace the Twiggy drives in the original Lisa with the
single 400K Sony 3.5". Most were upgraded.

Of course THE Lisa. The later models are the Lisa 2 and the Lisa 2/10
(aka Mac XL) which are easy to find (the Lisa 2/10 seems to be easier to
locate than a straight Lisa 2...and there IS a difference; several in
fact).
