I recently put together the following comparison for a friend at UWisc.
We were both purchasing a particular configuration of MAC II's.  The UCB
numbers include a handling charge (i think it was 8%) by the university.

MAC II PRICING:
					UWisc	 UCB	Developers	Retail
MacII, 1 meg, 40 meg HD, 1 floppy	 3286	3187	  2685		 5369
Apple extended keyboard			  146	 145	   160		  229
Monochrome Monitor (12")	          304	 253	   279		  399
Color Monitor (13")			  682	 635	   699		  999
MacII video card (2 cards)		  630	 634	   699		  998
MacII video expansion kit		   95	 126	   104		  149
2 Megabyte expansion kit	          693	 730	   699		  999
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
		TOTAL			 5836	5710	  5325		 9142

NOTES:
1. Discounts from retail:
	developers	42%
	UCB		38%
	UWisc		36%
2. National Semiconductor 3rd party memory:
	4Mbyte	1185	295/mbyte
	8Mbyte	2157	270/mbyte
	12Mbyte	3297	275/mbyte
	16Mbyte	4197	262/mbyte
These prices are university discounted.  University discount is 40% off retail.
This memory is NuBus memory so it is only usable by A/UX.  Apple memory
expansion is usable by either Apple OS or A/UX.
