[comp.sys.mac.misc] New Mac prices, final version

dave@PRC.Unisys.COM (David Lee Matuszek) (11/08/90)

Here's the final version of the prices I have collected.  These are
mostly educational prices.  The Classics come with both monitor and
keyboard, the IIsi machines come with neither.

A last call: Does anyone know what dealers' prices are?  Are they the
same for dealers everywhere?  Like many people, I don't have access to
educational prices, and this would be VERY helpful bargaining
information!  If anyone has this information, please post it (or email
to me if you wish to remain anonymous).

Listed in (roughly) order of increasing price.

Mac LC: List, $2499.  Stanford, $1517, but may be reduced $50-100.  I
have no other prices.  Until the LC is cleared by the FCC, it may not
be sold nor offered for sale; this is probably why no prices are
available.

* Apple offers a $250 rebate on the 13" color monitor, if bought with
any IIsi, IIci, or IIfx BEFORE January 5, 1991.  As best I can tell,
this is handled as a "instant rebate":  the dealer just takes that
amount off the price.  Probably that has already been done with the
machine+monitor prices listed above.

DISCLAIMER: I have just collected and posted these prices; I haven't
verified any of them.  Your mileage may vary.
