There was a big update of the legacy site just now: http://www.stformat.com/
All issues online, this is a treasure chest for info about computer music at the beginning as the Atari ST was used so extensively during the beginning to mid 90's

Stuff has gotten cheaper, not only because the price has been reduced but also because software does so much more.

You are rightBDeep wrote:£499 then would be roughly £868 now. That would make it more expensive back then no?
Steinberg can maybe use it as advertising, ala "getting more affordable all the time"

Yeah, I was actually surprised how much less a $/£/€ is worth these days.
Of course, buying it today is loads cheaper: think of all the updates that you would have bought if you had purchased Cubase in '89
