Ok, before anybody sends me a letter bomb or something - these are actual
prices taken from old Apple publications (1978-1983).  I do not really have
these items for sale, I just thought the readers here might get a kick out
of these.  Those who are new to the Apple computer may be shocked by how
much hardware used to cost.  We old timers, on the other hand, remember only
too well how much we sunk into our machines.  Keep this file as a handy
reference.  The next time you start grumbling about having to pay $349.00
for a 105Mb hard disk, refer to it.  It might make you feel better.

Anybody want to buy a Franklin Ace 1000 loaded with goodies?  First $6000
takes it.  I might just break even on it.
