I mean, a 17k$ (back then) workstation from the 90s would still be fine. People love their SGI and Sun machines.

Not sure how much they did cost back then, I was born in 1996, but you get the idea.

A $17k workstation from the 90's would not even be able to browse the internet.

To put it in perspective, we didn't even have multi-core CPUs until the mid 2000's, a mid 90's machine would have around 400 MHz on a single core and that's being generous.
