Comments
The Macintosh TV was introduced on October 25, 1993. It was aimed at
first-time Mac buyers, home users, and college students who wanted the
"best of all worlds," a computer, TV, and CD player rolled into one sleek,
black box. The Macintosh TV was received with excitement in the Mac press
until after careful analysis, its glaring deficiencies became known. The
Macintosh TV was considered an entry level Mac and sold for an affordable
$2,079. Apple marketed the Mac TV primarily through consumer electronics
channels and sold it directly to college students at universities.
