Was playing around with different config prices on the new Mini M4, bemoaning the silly upgrade prices, and remembered what I paid for that 540c (cash, to a local certified dealer working out of their garage). $10k in today's money! Granted, it had the new XL 9.5" active-matrix screen, as well as two (2 !!) batteries for that extra long usage time.

Still rolling my eyes at the upgrade prices, but it's good to remember how much Macs cost back in the covered wagon days.
