- nkotov 2y agoMac mini but previously the iMac G3 was $999.
- y04nn 2y agoAdjusted for inflation, $1000 of 1983 is more than $3000 today.
- jethro_tell 2y agoWhat is that adjusted for average wage?
- dpkirchner 2y agoLooks like average wages are up over 4x: https://www.ssa.gov/oact/cola/AWI.html https://www.ssa.gov/oact/cola/AWI.html
- ArnoVW 2y agoMaybe not the computers we would buy or like, but you can buy plenty of computers for a couple of hundred dollars. Hell, you can buy a mobile phone (a computer that fits in your pocket!) for less than that. And don’t get met started about raspberry Pi and the likes. We are genuinely living in the future. We just don’t realize it all the the time.
