Around here a 33 Mhz 80486, with 1 floppy a 40Mb HD, 1 Mb of RAM, and
a VGA monitor costs $2475.00.  This is an AMI motherboard with 64k cache.
There are cheaper systems available.
The above system is available from MICRO DEX, in the san diego area.
(619)467-9305.  It is an ISA system.

ALso includes 2 set/par/game ports.  There are cheaper systems available too.
So $3600 for a VGA 33Mhz 80486 is highway robbery.
