So was mine! If I recall correctly, we paid about $1,000 nominal, so about $2,500 or $3,000 in today's dollars.
For that, we got a floppy disk drive (and by flop, I mean flop-flop-flop), 64K of memory and a black screen with green letters.

Yup.. I remember going to the Apple store to buy an extra memory card so the word processor (Bank Street Writer I believe) could show an entore page width on the screen... plus my Submarine Game ran much better.

I could be wrong here, but I seem to recall we paid about $100 for a 64K memory upgrade. We didn't buy it for Bank Street writer, we bough it for more important endeavors...like Lode Runner.
$100 for 64...K! I'm guessing 64K of memory costs less than a penny nowadays.
Apple just like GE,produces some great products. But they both outsource many jobs overseas. So if you don't like foreigners making your IPhone or Macbook,then simply don't purchase those products or just give them up. I don't think this is political though. The Left as well as the Right love their gadgets. Hardly any thought goes into who or where they're made. It's not about politics.
I agree but GHook93 thinks otherwise. Either he should offer proof or admit this is a troll thread.
GHook93??? Where are you????
Rush Limbaugh has been one of Apple's most ardent lovers for years.
I own lots of Apple stuff. I don't care where they're made, how their people are paid, their benefits, how much the products cost, or anything else. IMO they're better than their competitors in a variety of ways and that's all that counts for me.
I'm the same way with other consumer products. If I like something, want it, and can afford it I buy.
I just hope the same people yelling and trying to shut down Walmart aren't the same people the get shivers up their leg by Apple!
Why would anyone be trying to shut down any business during these awful times? We don't need anymore unemployed Americans. Who's trying to shut down Walmart?
Where are the human rights whackos on China's policy on exterminating girl babies in lieu of males?Their factories in China employ children. And their safety record is abysmal. But that's all fine. Cuz it's Apple.

I've never owned an Apple product....seriously. They're over-priced and mostly under-utilized by those that purchase them.
That and making it appear to be a liberal-only phenomenon is intellectually dishonest.
One of the most successful and innovative corporate minds in a generation, thrown under the bus because people here disagree with his politics. Get a fucking grip - it's not Job's fault you're too poor to afford his products.
Mr. Jobs was a uniques success story in the uniquely American story. (Despite his politics).One of the most successful and innovative corporate minds in a generation, thrown under the bus because people here disagree with his politics. Get a fucking grip - it's not Job's fault you're too poor to afford his products.
I don't even know Job's politics, nor do I care. I like his products, but people are fools to believe that corporation is run different than any other corporation. Like Walmart, Target, Toys'r'us etc. other over-regulation, over taxation, EPA out of control, unions out of control and failure to fight the trade war with China has forced these manufactures to go over-seas to build our products.
The left say its a greedy corporate thing, but their favorite corporation does the same thing!

You're being too kind. Making it appear to be a liberal-only phenomenon is 100% bullshit. I've never owned an Apple product in my life. And on top of that one of my most Conservative friends swears by his Apple Mac.
I wonder if he wants to try again......

Then you'll gladly join me in not buying products made in China nor shopping those stores that sell mostly products made in China, right? Bucs and GHook can joing us as well!!!

So we're all in agreement that buying products made in China is a bad thing, right? And that we should not buy in stores (like WalMart) that sell so much of their stuff.
Oh....and GHook!! You've been asked (several times) to back up your contention the buying Apple products is a "left" thing. Got some proof or anything to back it up?
