And here I thought I was being stupid paying $1600 for a 4090 back then. Jesus Fucking Christ, $12K for a GPU!? That's 1980s prices! Guess I won't be upgrading for a long time... (edit: not that I need to anytime soon, lol. This card is a beast)

    To be fair to the 1980's, a Hercules video card in 1982 adjusted for inflation would only be about $1700. We are way beyond that point.

    An original Macintosh 128K would set you back $8100 in today's money, so I guess in that regard Apple hasn't changed. ;)
