Somewhere in the mid 90s, I think my x86 286 with a math co-processor and extended memory of 1 megabyte cost me $2k.

In 1986, an IBM Clone AT 640K RAM, with a 10MB HD, 12" green screen Monitor, 2 floppies, set us back $$4250.00 An equivalent IBM set up was about $5995.00, but only had a 5MB HD.

I was really excited when I got my first 20 MB hard drive!
