Since my first PC compatible, I've been building, well assembling my
own, desktops, and I'm pretty sure that with judicious reuse of
components, none of my computers have ever cost $2500 initially. The
one I want to build now might come close.

I think my first Mac (Mac+, 1987-88) was about $2250. Every one since then has
been in the $1800-2200 range.

Yeah, that's it. The same sort of thing happened with PC's. Remember what
the first XT's cost?

When I was selling Apple ][ plus computers, people would spend $2500+ on the
system to run a $200 VisiCalc program.
I remember John Dvorak writing in PC magazine that what Moore's Law
really meant was that while computing power would double every 18 months
or so, the computer you'd *want* would always cost $2500.
