Was that a top-of-the-line Mac in 1992, Dave? I believe the new Mac Pro tops out somewhere around $50,000.
What was the cost of an Avid system in the 90's? $150,000 or more? The fall in cost of the total system over the next 20 years probably tracked Moore's law pretty nicely. But now the software component is so cheap, any declines in software cost are swamped by increasingly expensive hardware. So instead of expecting the cost of an edit system to decline over time, we seem to be in a new era where it will be rising.
Unfortunately, Moore's law broke down about the same time as camera resolution really started escalating.
