20th Anniversary Macintosh

20th Anniversary Macintosh

Just before Steve Jobs returned to Apple to rescue the struggling company, Gil Amelio unveiled this Mac to celebrate Apple's 20th anniversary as a company in 1997. Few were made, and at $9,000 to start, few were sold. Apple eventually dropped the price more in line with the rest of the Macintosh lineup and sales picked up, but this computer appeared to be more about design than profit.
