Not to disagree, but Apple had very steep educational discounts. My example: Mac SE with harddisk, ImageWriter II, Microsoft Word, and some other software for $2500. Macs were everywhere in higher education (except the business school).
My impression is most of the home computing scene largely moved over to Amigas and Atari STs.
- richardjdare 13y agoThe Amiga had several good BASICs, particularly AMOS and Blitz Basic. Blitz was very powerful and fun to program. You could easily drop beneath the provided commands and access the OS and hardware beneath. It had well-integrated inline assembly. I ended up using it as an assembler with the BASIC facilities for support. The first game in Team 17's long running Worms franchise was written in Blitz.
