The Lisa UI looks clunky and ugly to modern eyes (akin to though not as bad as other early GUIs like Windows 1.0 and OS/2 Presentation Manager), while the original Macintosh still looks clean and well thought out.

I really prefer the way Lisa hid the applications and used an office supplies metaphor to create documents rather than opening an application, generating the document and then saving it.
