- nsxwolf 9y agoThe existence of even cheaper computers does not make my point irrelevant. A larger proportion of the population can afford a Mac today than in 1984, and an even larger proportion still can afford a computer of any sort.
- abritinthebay 9y agoCheap PC notebooks are really irrelevant when comparing with the Mac. A computer of the era that would compare with those would be a C64 or an Atari 800XL which were ~$300 then. Mac's were pretty top of the line at the time (too much so in many ways, which raised the price). They'd be comparable to a high-end desktop now.
