The Apple III
Believe it or not, Apple was once the king of its industry. Before the IBM and compatibles. At the time, the Apple II was their best selling product. Concern over competition caused Apple to create the Apple III.
The Apple III cost between US$4,340 to $7,800 and had an optional ProFile hard drive for another $3,495. It was a failure. LowEndMac looks at the Apple III and it’s various flaws including the case design which was solid aluminum. Also check out a more detailed article written in 2006.
