Right now, you can get a 16 MHz Amiga 3000 for $1850, and a 25
MHz version for $2250. (True, this is a "trade-in offer" from the
manufacturer, but you can buy a machine to trade-in for less than
$200, and give it to the kids, since all you trade in is the cover of
the users manual and the serial number.) I expect that the list will
be coming down when this offer ends.
As usual, choose your own poison on MIPS numbers, but in my
experience the 25 MHz machine is faster than a Mac IIfx or a VAX
8700...
