Jobs: What turns on Andy and Burrell and Chris and Bill and Larry and everyone else here is building something really inexpensive so that everyone can afford it.
also jobs, probably: "they said to start with a joke, so i did..."
Mac: $2495
IBM PC: $1565
For some reason they had all the school markets captured though. All throughout the 80s and up to the mid-90s, when I was growing up, it was all nothing but Apple IIs and Macs everywhere. The few DOS/Win 3.0 machines I saw were Novell Netware workstations for the teachers to use.
Now I guess they're all chromebooks.
