Where are you getting these figures? I havn’t been able to find diddly on the internet.

Really? I dropped this into google: Compaq Desk Pro 386 of 1986 price

And received this link as the 4th hit.

In fact, the google summary of the page shows the price ($6499) so you don't even have to follow the link.

I won’t use google. Period.
