I don't think the original poster meant that the whole deal was $4000 (if
so, it's definitely too low), but your $4000 looks high to me.
I have right here in my hands an ad for a IIcx with a 40MB hard disk
and 2MB of RAM for $3795 (MacWorld, March 1990, page 284). The next page
has an ad for the same machine at $3869.
