To hear people talk about the wopping $2400-$2500 they spent on a computer
is
amusing. I spent $2400 just on 8Meg of memory for my Mac II, and that was
half
the price some vendors were selling it at during those memory shortage
times.
This was the time when a 1024x768 24bit slow as a snail dumb framebuffer (no
graphics acceleration) graphics card listed for $4000, and how about a $3000
19" monitor to run it on. Today when I hear people complain about the price
of
a new Mac for instance, I just think to myself those ungrateful bastards
have
never had is so good and they don't even know it.
