Is there a resource on the web that shows the original list prices for
various classic machines or options? I would be tickled to know the
original value of my various classic pieces of equipment (even just the
DEC ones if not all including IBM or HP).
In general, I was not there when they were purchased, or out of high
school or college in most cases.

relate the original prices to absurd ebay auctions.
