In 1995 I paid $1,000 for my IIci 240MB HDD, 32MB RAM, Daystar Turbo601/66 accelerator card, 10 BaseT ethernet, and 14" apple monitor. I added a Supermac thunder/24 video card and a PAS 16 Audio card. (those cost me $100) Sold my powerbook 180 to pay for it, as I recall I still had money leftover. :)
still have it, in my attic, but it's got a RasterOps 24bit video card with video input(but no drivers) and 128MB RAM :) -sam > At 12:03 PM -0800 12/19/2008, MIKO .. wrote: >> On Dec 19, 2008, at 7:58 AM, Bruce Johnson wrote: >> >>> Also, never, ever forget that you have to compare historical >>> prices in >>> a constant dollar fashion. >> >> Actually, gulp- I just never realized that they used to cost so >> much new! > > Ah, those were the days. heh.
