I am a desperate student in need of an '030 Nope. The SE/30's educational price did -not- change. If you keep track of educational -and- retail prices, you'll note that difference between the SE/30's educational and retail price was far greater (percent-wise) than any of the other Macs.

Here is a blurb from the post: Mac SE 30/80 Manufacturer's suggested retail price $3,869 (new price) CMU price $2,320 (was $2,745) John.
