  • Hardware keyboard upgrade

    From Rob Mccart@VERT/CAPCITY2 to BF2K+ on Monday, April 20, 2026 09:09:59
    Don't know if I would ever pay $250 for a keyboard... probably not.

    Back when I first started into computers in the late 1980's a
    cheap keyboard was $150 or so, and an IBM was $400..

    Of course, a 5.25" floppy drive was $400 and a 10 *MEG* hard drive
    was somewhere up around $1700 too..

    Be sure to make allowances that you have to probably triple those
    numbers to put them into today's dollars..
