Well, I agree that Apple would have been even better with Steve at the helm. As for affordability apple has never been cheap, when the first iphone came out it was very expensive, $600 in 2007 which would be $791 in today's dollars. This is for a phone with no apps or app store and 8GB of storage which is really tiny. If we go back further apple products get even more expensive. The apple ii(released in 1978) was $1298 or $5543 in today's dollars, not exactly cheap!
