DFSThe first IT company I worked for sold 386 machines for around £3000, that's around £6000 in today's money, $7500 at today's exchange rate. Even more if you wanted a maths co-processor which as we were shipping several to the Joint European Taurus labs near Oxford was the standard config.

then again, not until 1994 I really start to enjoy computers...
Why not? I enjoyed DOS programs from '85 to '91 or so: Norton Commander, Javelin, Lotus 1-2-3, dBase, Paradox, Norton Utilities...
And then a little later came Doom and Heretic and Hexen.
I couldn't afford PC in that time...
Yeah, they were expensive back then. I think my Dad gave me my first PC (an 8086).
Today USD 1500 will get you a nice PC. That's 174758 RSD. Will that buy you a good system over there? Is that expensive relative to rent and food and gasoline?
