Boris,
   I would be surprised if Apple's margins on the new macs weren't initially
50% or so. They probably have designed these machines understanding that the
prices will collapse as does the 286 market which is the competition. I was
disappointed that they didn't go for a 16 MHz 68000 to make the 'Classic'
a little less classical.
