I feel bad for anyone who spent that much money on a computer back in
the day, only to be told that it was obsolete a year or two later. The
only affordable options for most people were Atari 800s, Commodore 64s
or TI994/As, everything else seemed to require us to take a second
mortgage on our homes.
When the Osborne 1 came out in 1981 I was happy to pay $1800 for it. I got
several years use from it before inevitably getting dragged into the MSDOS
world.
Later I bought two of the mythical Osborne Executives when the Boston
Globe was dumping them for PCs. They went at fire sale prices and I
couldn't resist.
