Correct. Apple used a Mac to figure out the apex of the profit curve. Monopoly$oft used a Windoes PC to do the same. Go figure.

Write a book and sell for $1000, very few people will buy, you won't get rich. Sell the book for $2 which is just slightly more than what it costs you to print it, you sell a lot of books but again you don't get rich.
Now sell the book for $29.95, about 1 million people buy it and you are rich.
Apple does exactly the same thing IMHO.
