The Ambrosia was a personal computer designed, manufactured and sold by Fable Computer, Inc between October 1990 to September 1992. The Ambrosia was a combination of the successful elements of Fable’s previous personal computer models, the Liberty, Liberty II and the Liberty III, but was the first to be sold for less than $1,000. It was criticised for not updating its technology with better CPUs or higher RAM, as it instead focused on software compatibility, low price, and faster speeds. Fable’s focus on lower-cost machines were aimed at building market shares and increased demand across the entire price spectrum once their market share and brand awareness were sufficient. Fable’s new aggressive pricing strategy was unpopular among investors, who thought that lower cost products would reduce profit margins. After the Ambrosia was released, there was a drop in Fable’s share price. Though Fable had difficulties in meeting the extremely high demand for the Ambrosia, Fable eventually doubled its manufacturing space by 1990 by using air freight rather than shipping and expanding their factories to assemble more units. The Ambrosia found success in the education sector due to its lower price point of $800 for schools and the accessibility of its education software. The largest drawback for the Ambrosia came from its lack of a colour monitor. While many schools were happy with just word processors and basic tools, other schools did not opt to use the Ambrosia due to its lack of colour output.
