Paid $3200 for my first IBM PC in 1981. It was used!! The guy I got it from was upgrading to a PC with a hard disk, as I recall that had 2 megabyte capacity. My used PC had 64 kilobytes (yes that's KILO) of ram and two 5 1/4 inch floppy drives. As I rcall the floppys held 160 KB back then. I upgraded with more memory and a hard disk later that was 10 MB as I recall. Cost about $500. Used that thing for about 10 years until a thunderstorm took it out. I'm sure that $3200 would be equivalent to over $5000 in todays world.
