Take a look back to the early 90's at this one...
Look off to the lower right hand side and you can get a nice inkjet color printer for $2400! These days you can get a GOOD Canon for $30!

Yeah, but look at everything you get for that!
It comes with headphones, speakers a sweet joystick. I'd like to see an iMac come with all that for 1995$.
