I have never been as productive as I was when I had (the terminals for) two of these babies on the desks in my office. I can't imagine how much they must have cost in 1985, much less in today's dollars. I do remember each had 8 MW of memory (40 bits IIRC, 36 bit word + 4 bits of ECC) and one of them had a color display (!!!) in addition to the regular monitor. And apart from the hardware cost, the machines themselves were in a machine room with coax and data run to my office.
