What new product did Apple Computer launch with a $1.5 million commercial during the 1984 Super Bowl?

 Answer: Macintosh

Apple Computer launched its new Macintosh computer with a $1.5 million commercial during the 1984 Super Bowl. The ad played on the Big Brother theme of George Orwell's 1984, depicting Big Brother meeting his demise thanks to the powerful Macintosh personal computer. The first successful mouse-driven computer with a graphic interface, the Macintosh also boasted WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) word processing, a much anticipated innovation. Containing many of the most popular features of Apple's previous (and very expensive) Lisa computer, the Macintosh sold for a much more affordable $2,500.
