Witchy,
Where did you get the 70,000 figure from?

We had my Lisa 1 running at the Computer History Museum for their
AppleLore event as well as during VCF 6.0. Unfortunately, we couldn't get
it to boot from the Twiggy's or from a ProFile, so it just sat there
displaying error windows :( By the end of the VCF it had died, and I
haven't had a chance to figure out what happened. My guess is that the
power supply went out.
