> Those microwaves would come in at about $1,200 in today’s dollars. Most of us spend about $50 on one today, granted the quality is probably crap.

The family microwave when I was a kid was a Magnavox Carousel. It was BIG. It had a very simple dial to set the time and power. I despise todays kitchen appliances with membrane keypads and having to hit TIME 2 0 0 COOK

My parents only got rid of that thing recently.
