Infographic: the Apple Lisa Cost As Much As 43 iPads
You only had to listen to the gasps that filled the room when Steve Jobs announced the iPad’s price to figure out that Apple’s tablet is incredibly inexpensive… not just for what it is, but for an Apple product.
In case you needed further proof, though, check out this incredible infographic by Vouchercodes.co.uk that puts the iPad’s dirt cheap price in perspective.
How cheap is the iPad? Not only is it 43 times cheaper than the Apple Lisa (the most expensive computer Apple’s ever sold), but it’s the cheapest major new product Apple has ever introduced short of the iPod.
Early adopter or not, there is simply no reason to feel bad about picking one up at $499. Apple products just don’t come at a better value.
