On Mac pricing: the list prices were appalling, but there were very deep discounts offered to educational institutions. They were still expensive (especially as the very first model didn't have enough RAM and disk to run its own OS properly), but the interface was a big attraction, as the competition was MS-DOS 3.31 or thereabouts. Presumably the plan was to get people hooked on Mac when they were at university, and then they'd demand the same when they got jobs. Mac users could be very demanding.
