That's nearly completely opposite to my experience
among the Apple II crowd
in the midwest of the United States. Many of the Apple II enthusiasts
wanted the Lisa, but it was too expensive for them. When the Mac was
introduced, they were quick to adopt it.
Let's not forget all of the Apple IIs that were sent to schools--very
many an early student's exposure to computers started with an Apple II
in school.
My reaction to the first Mac was that the screen was way too small for
me. It was Osborne all over again.
