They were the days... I wrote whole systems in Microsoft Cobol for use on IBM PC's, back in 1982-5. The computers cost about $6k as I remember, and had dual floppy disk drives (each disk could store 360k of data). When the first PC-XT came out with an onboard 10MB hard drive, it seemed like a huge leap forward.
