I suppose part of it is recalling I paid $6700 for a Zeos 386 case/motherboard,
1 floppy, a Video7 VGA card (first card that could really do 1024 x 768), a
120MB drive and a NEC monitor (the monitor alone was $1500).

The Micronix motherboard was all *through-hole* 22V10 PALs. I counted like 140
of them (other motherboards used chip sets from Chips and Technologies). The
motherboard alone (no processor) pulled 34A at +5V. I paid like $299 for a Cyrix
387 math co-processor and this was "a great deal". Ah, the good old days.....
