That's pretty crazy with today's expectations though I remember touring a physics lab c. 1990 and they had just gotten a Mac IIfx maxxed out with options for $14K. Which was more than a typical new car price at the time. It was monitoring and data-logging a tokamak so I think they had a DoE grant. I hoped I'd own a 64MB machine one day to do some real serious computing! Now my email reader needs 4.2GB resident. :/
