- $700 extra? For an NEC XV17 17" monitor, sure. Most people,

- 7200/75 - $1000
- 7200/75 keyboard - $100
- 7200/75 Apple 15" Monitor - $400
- 8M DIMM - $150
- $1650 for a 75 mhz Mac, complete and well-equipped. Figure $1800 for
- a 16M 90 mhz version. Note that's with high-quality, Apple brand
- components. If I wanted a cheap 17" monitor, they're $299 at Computer
- City for the next few days...
