[Techtoolslist] RE: FLUKE 9100A SCSI to CF Adapter - Success with Stratos CF AZTECMONSTER

[martin at guddler.co.uk]

Scary isn’t it!!

 

I’m sure the original invoice for mine is in the box for it in the loft. $29,000 if I remember rightly.

 

When I have friends round that don’t realise I have a lot of this stuff and we go up to the shed where the pinballs and videos are, on more then one occasions I’ve pointed to the 9100 sitting there in corner and mentioned that the bit of kit over there was $29,000 originally, and more to the point that was only in the early 90’s.

 

They find that kind of hard to believe. Yet it’s true!

Very Interesting for sure. 
9900 yen is about 125 US dollar.

Just found these scans from a Fluke catalogue.

Look at page two for the original prices of these toys........ ;D ;D ;D

There were multiple listings for the board on ebay yesterday but it appears each had multiple bidders and closed above the starting price.
