Macintosh IIfx (4MB/floppy) $8,969 $7,369 - $1,600 -18.0

I guess these new prices mean Mac users can now say $4995 for a 68040
NeXT is too much. I never realized that Apple's prices were so high.
Notice the previous price of a 4MB/80HD SE/30.
The NeXT bomb comes when Apple releases their 040 machine with builtin
ethernet.

They look like academic prices to me. If they are this is not a fair comparison, it should either be list or academic for both not a mixture. I suspect that the NeXT prices will still be cheaper than the Mac prices but the situation is much better now. However I would like to see the Mac prices even lower, but I guess that goes without saying.

I think the NeXT monochrome normally costs $4995 with everything, and the color station costs $7995($2000 monitor). By the way, the color NeXTstations were officially released yesterday. -Mike
