Your figures seem just a tad inflated...
The prices here at Dartmouth (an AUC school but bottom level street prices
are not much more from what I've seen in the papers and mags) are more like
            MAC SE:     $2750.  (SE with hard disk & ImageWriterII).
            MAC Plus:   $2480.  (Inlude's Apple's HD20SC & ImageWriterII)
            Mac Plus:   $1825.  (Includes a supercheap SCSI hard disk and no
                                 printer as there are many scattered around
                                 campus as well as numerous public laserwriters)
And the Mac you'll get for $1825 will be much more powerful and useful than the
PC-clone you'll get for $1650.
