(I believe that the following information is correct, but I haven't
verified it recently.)

No Lisas/Macintosh XLs were manufactured with the square pixel
modification.  The square pixel kit has only been available for about
a month now; the last Macintosh XL was built many months ago.

Anyone who wants the square pixel modification must get it from a
dealer.  Ask your dealer to check through the recent AppleGrams,
which are a series of newsletters sent to dealers announcing new
products.  The square pixel kit should have appeared in the AppleGram
about dated September 15th.

If you plan on using your Macintosh XL for Macintosh development, then
you should realize that the screen modification kit will not work with
the Workshop environment.  The kit changes the number of pixels in
each row of the screen which confuses the Workshop.  If you plan on
using one of the native development systems under MacWorks, then there
is no problem installing the screen modification.
