My recollection is that the HP 9830 and IBM 5100 were
pretty competitively
priced. Both started under 10K and went up fact if you wanted more memory,
a printer, etc.

Not really. It depends on when you bought them. I
had IBM research my
5100 and it cost $12,575 originally. I have SOME of the yearly prices for
the 5100 posted at "http://www.intellistar.net/~rigdonj/ibm5100.htm"
Yes, but your 5100 has the optional second language, and four times the
RAM of the 9830.
