That's fine if you're selling a niche product:

> Sales were strong at its initial release on January 24, 1984, at $2,495 (equivalent to $7,000 in 2022), and reached 70,000 units on May 3, 1984.

I think Apple wants to sell more than 70,000 of these things though.

The Vision Pro had more than double that number in the first 10 days of preordering. Estimates are Apple expects to produce ~500k units, I don't know if they'll really sell that many though, the popularity is waning quite quickly.
