> from which we can conclude, that (also) from the view of Apple original Pascal was not suited for the endeavor Another conclusion might be that Apple started with UCSD Pascal (which was available for the Apple II and already included extensions to standard Pascal) and that they thought that certain extensions were useful even if they weren't technically necessary. Clearly the Lisa didn't need Clascal or Object Pascal (the Macintosh didn't require them), but they provide advantages in terms of conciseness, modularity, reusability, etc..
