For a while, you had to have a Lisa to program on the Mac, so that may have inflated the numbers a bit.

Very expensive. At my work we looked into getting a 5 MB Winchester HDD for our PC in the early 1980s and it cost more than the computer had! So the bean counters said to keep using the two 5.25” floppies and forget about a HDD.
Rumor is that Apple buried 2,700 Lisas in a Logan, Utah landfill to get rid of them.
