Mac IIcx = (SE/30 + MacII (box only)) / 2

This should be within $50-100 (except for the MacIIcx 40, which is a bit less).
This formula is based on suggested retail prices, but should be even closer for
University and Developer prices. It sould work for equivalent models (plain,
1Meg Memory/40 Meg drive, 4 Meg Memory/80 Meg drive) Numbers should be rounded
to typical last 2 significant digits of other models!

Boy, I'll die if this is really how they picked thier prices!!! But they are
pretty accurate. 

Thanks Apple, this is even less that I expected!


The formula for model numbers is just way too big for a post!
Just remember you heard it here first.
