Yeah they were super expensive at MSRP. They did get heavily discounted after launch though, unlike today's Apple products. And the software available for Macs was really what allowed them to price the way they did.

I suspect most of them were being bought by businesses. At the time I was selling QMS PostScript printers (for £5000+ each) into publishers and marketing agencies. They were all running Pagemaker and Illustrator.
