>From today's Wall Street Journal: "The Macintosh, which will retail
for $2,495, is a scaled-down version of Apple's Lisa computer. Both
are a part of what Apple calls its 32-bit line of computers. The Lisa
models will be able to use all the Macintosh software, but the
Macintosh won't be able to use all of the Lisa software. The
Macintosh will have double the memory of the IBM Personal
Computer--which means it will be able to handle more than 130,000
pieces of information at one time." ... "We priced it at a point
where we can make a normal profit on it." ... "Mr. Sculley has
taken pains to see that the Macintosh is ready on the day of formal
introduction." ... "At the annual meeting the company will introduce
the 'Apple University Consortium,' representatives of the colleges
that altogether have ordered $50 million of Macintoshes." --david--
