Can't remember... I think like $800CDN and that was in '88... '89... plus tax.

I'm not sure if Ward remembers how much he paid for his?

The thing about Radio Shock was that you could walk in with a fistful of cash
and moments later walk out with a complete computer ready to go. It didn't 
need a floppy drive or controller or serial/printer port card, etc.
