      Actually at $1299 it was a pretty good deal because a PC required that you buy a monitor, speakers, a modem, and was held back by MS Windows 95 which was a dog for too many reasons to count.
      Steve knew that Nextstep was going to become MacOS X and he knew that the floppy drive was obsolete.
      A balance had to be struck between giving customers a good value and saving Apple from going out of business. The iMac was a huge success at accomplishing that.
      Later on he added an optical burner and apologized on an investment conference call that they hadn’t gotten to that sooner. See the Rip Mix Burn ad campaign.

    The Ipod shuffle came right as the internet switched to broadband and the timing was perfect for apple.
