OK, when did the ST and the A500 hit the markets? Does anyone have 
pricing for the machines in both Europe and the US at that time, along 
with prices for a typical-spec PC and a typical-spec Mac?

It'd be interesting to see how prices in the two regions compared and 
may have affected popularity of the various machines.

(At least in the UK, models of Amiga other than the A500 seemed pretty 
rare - not sure if that was true elsewhere in Europe or not)
