Sorry, just silly thoughts I had this morning. And playing around with the edit feature.

I think I bought my first PC in '93. It was a Dell 486DX2/50 with 4 megs of RAM and, maybe, a 80 meg. hard drive. 14" color monitor. I want to say the PC was about $3,200 and the monitor another $400 or so. It ran Windows 3.0. My first printer was a Panasonic 24 pin dot matrix. Maybe $300. I later upgraded that to a HP 4L for about $500. A 15" CRT monitor set me back another $500. The first modem was a Hayes 2400 baud "Smart Modem", maybe $200. Back then CompuServe charged by the minute and more for higher connection speeds.

The first laptop was a IBM PS/Note with a 486SX/25 processor, 4 megs. of RAM and maybe a 40 meg. hard drive. Somewhere north of $3,000. It did have a whopping 9600 baud FAX modem and about a 11" color screen! Windows 3.1.
