Only 30 Aussie dollars which is just 15 US dollars today (bad news for us
who like to buy imported techie goodies).

Definitely not common. In the mid-80's I was in a club of over 1,000
Commodore users and as far as I know only one person owned a SX-64 and it
was a major "show and tell" when he brought it along!
