I have a model 80 that has all sorts of neat features that I most
certainly would *not* let go for $2000. I wouldn't in 2027, that's for
sure. And a model 80 cost $10,000 with the smallest available disk and 2
MB RAM. My uncle's (which he bought for his business, and I now have) was
$16,000 new.
Peace... Sridhar

On the other hand, an IBM 8580 PS/2 cost around
$10,000 in 87 and I acquired one for $10 in 97. I'd
gladly part with an 8580 for $2000. Even $20 for that
matter.

1969 getting it for 5,000 2003 dollars is cheap. Ben.
