IIRC, the 70mb hard disk that we used in the mid 80's on a multiuser Unix (system V) system cost roughly $2000 at the time or $28 per MB in mid 80's dollars. Doing strictly work that was on green terminals and essentially accounting it was actually large enough to run a small business. The entire system cost was roughly 35k in 80's dollars including software and 10 terminals. Was fast and worked fine for it's purpose.
