===Discontinuation=== The high cost and the delays in its release date contributed to the Lisa's discontinuation although it was repackaged and sold at {{US$|4995|long=no}}, as the Lisa 2. In 1986, the entire Lisa platform was discontinued. In 1987, [[Sun Remarketing]] purchased about 5,000 [[Macintosh XL]]s and upgraded them. In 1989, with the help of Sun Remarketing, Apple disposed of approximately 2,700 unsold Lisa units in a guarded landfill in [[Logan, Utah]], to receive a tax write-off on the unsold inventory.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://news.hjnews.com/opinion/article_b71cddba-f7a0-11e0-8054-001cc4c002e0.html |title=Editor's Corner: Logan has interesting link to Apple computer history |date=October 16, 2011 |author=McCollum, Charles |access-date=February 24, 2014 |publisher=[[The Herald Journal]]}}</ref> Some leftover Lisa computers and spare parts were available until Cherokee Data (which purchased Sun Remarketing) went out of business.{{When|date=January 2017}} {{Timeline of Lisa models|headerextension==}}
