Add about $1100 for a color VGA monitor and VGA controller. Add $1000 for a 40 Megabyte Hard drive and controller. $6100 and you still need a dot matrix printer and a modem ( I am not sure what speed, the first one I had was a few years after this at 9600 baud.) Cost as pictured (With Hard disk) in today's money is: $15,520!

We did it cheaper, with the 1000EX and a daisywheel printer
