Some of the reports on The Verge translated by CTOnews.com are as follows:
According to a report in September 1989, Apple buried about 2700 unsold Lisa computers in Logan. Lisa was released in 1983, and this is Apple's first attempt at a truly modern graphics-driven computer: it has a mouse, windows, icons, menus and other things we all expect from a "user-friendly" desktop. It had these features a year before Macintosh was released, but it was also doomed to failure.
