I used to sell those cheap. Can't remember how much for, but the full retail was £90 for a box of 10. Yep, that's not a mistake. 90 quid.

Mind you, I sold maths co-processors then for £385. Bargain. Full Blue price was £1,750.

Imprimus Wren 150 mb hard drive, a thousand pound upgrade.

Big colour monitor, £2,600.

It's a different world now . . . you even have to have a brain to work the OS. Windows? I said it would never catch on.

Funny how one could design a cathedral using DOS 6.22 or less.

Pssssst...anyone want any ceramic tipped plotter pens?
