You can start by trying at least three commercial lisps that have trial versions:
www.franz.com - Allegro CL with IDE (Windows only IDE)
www.lispworks.com - Lispworks with EMACS like editor (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux)
www.cormanlisp.com - Windows only, non-EMACS-ie.
There are also various command-line and free implementations:
clisp, sbcl, OpenMCL (Mac), ecl, and others.
To use them you can either type your code on the command-line, or use something called LispBox: http://www.gigamonkeys.com/lispbox/
http://common-lisp.net/project/lispbox/
LispBox is basically EMACS + SLIME + LISP system.
I've bought the commercial version of LispWorks for Windows, and with Edi Weitz Starter Pack (http://weitz.de/starter-pack/) it's really wonderful, I'm still getting used to the EMACS bindings, so I'm also using OpenMCL/AquaMacs on my mac iBook, and also the Personal Edition of Lispworks there (which can't load the Edi Weitz Starter Pack automatically).

environment at work. I am new to LISP and I am lost (because i have
been using limelight mainstream languages like java). I want to learn
and use LISP to develop AIs. Maybe, start with a simple game AI and
gradually advancing towards scientific or medical AIs and then to
financial AIs. There are several implementations or flavors of LISP.
Where do I start? Which ones used the most? or Does each
implementation have a specialty?
