The apple lisa was 25k when adjusted for inflation…prices are for early adopters
- turnsout 3y agoYes, and the Lisa failed, because there just weren’t enough adopters at that price. I struggle to see any sizable market for the tinybox, but I wish them good luck.
- Damogran6 3y agoLessons learned on the Lisa were applied to the Mac for less money to sell to more people. I suspect the same thing will happen with their VR/AR/XR headset.
- turnsout 3y agoThey only got a second crack at it because they were floating on sales of the Apple II. If the Lisa had been their first product, we'd be saying "Apple who?" The Vision is a whole different universe… with their cash and position they could (and may) take 10 cracks at it.
- Damogran6 3y agoDoesn't make the tactic any more or less relevant...let the people with money and motivation become the first real-world usability testers, then optimize for the rest of the population.
