npub1k0hh74ys2lhsrmhxsuv5jvttfkug78pf2dwyepstud23uru9hzps7ucz0d (npub1k0h…cz0d) Inflation adjusted prices:
- 1984 original Macintosh: $7000
- 1991 PowerBook 100: $5600
And that was the low-end PowerBook. Is $3500 cheap? No, of course not. But it’s affordable by historical standards for breakthrough devices.
