You guys have it all wrong.  256K chips are on the market place for
between <$25 to <$30.  Apple is OBVIOUSLY paying paying on hte low end.
Perhaps as low as $20.  16 X $20 is $320.  the dealers KEEP $200 minimum
on hte deal.  That makes the NO PROFEt  TFrom Apple to (at least) $520.
Add to this the actual cost of assembly, the new motherboard, other
components ont he new motherboard and the software (Mac Draw and Mac
Project) given to pre-September purchaser's of Mac and the price (though
very high) is ablut right.

Will the price come down?  Sure, but so what; that's called economics of
scale.


Can we get onto some other topic now.

I'm more interested in seeing some comments as to software and
usefulness of the Mac.
