Dear Laura,

Four years ago we got a 20 station Tandberg TLC-1000 (Prisma) with a
console. The cassette decks were $1500 each and the console was $15000.
(Ball park figures.) We used existing furniture to update the old lab. We
have been delighted with how the equipment has held up: Very few problems.

Best,
Karl
