It was $2,500 U.S. for a Macintosh in 1984.
That's probably, in today's money, between $4,000 to $5,000.
I remember asking my Old Man to buy one for me; didn't get it.
I remember seeing the commercial; it's perhaps the greatest commercial in the history of American advertising and was the genesis of the great advertising blitz that the Superbowl became:
Apple Macintosh

In 1984, Apple next launched the Macintosh. Its debut was announced by the now famous $1.5 million television commercial "1984". It was directed by Ridley Scott and was aired during the third quarter of Super Bowl XVIII on January 22, 1984.[42] It is now hailed as a watershed event for Apple's success[43] and a "masterpiece".[44][45]
