It's been a couple of years since I've seen these advertized, but I thought 
they were $1000 new.  I believe the base printer is the HP Laserjet 1, which 
I have seen advertized for under $250.

I always thought the propriatory interface card was a bit cheap.  They could 
have at least gone with Parallel,  Serial, or something else widely 
supported.
