Emperor Harkonnen Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 How much is one solaris in us dollar? I guess probably none of you know that, but I am just asking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 Hmm, US dollars are collector items by the time solaris comes around. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 Hmm, I think you can't compare that anymore. For all those inflations etc. in all that time. And Euros will become collectors items too I think ;) (but worth more then a dollar ;D;)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acriku Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 Also the imperfections of having so many types of currency. It was a good idea to have a main currency of the Imperium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefud Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 Remember: the dollar is used by the Earth-dwellers, and solaris is used by the space-dwellers. There's a huge difference between them (this contains time and space). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acriku Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 The dollar could not have possibly lasted that long! It had no special advantages that would prolong it's existence. Earth is also just a myth, a legend, a folktale! Remember, it is a Class-13 planet (that one's for you Ex), and probably overrun by the masses creating havoc and pollution and massacring and murder and deaths and uninhabitability so much that it becomes nothing. Nothing! Can you imagine! :O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefud Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Wow!!! What a pessimistic view of the future!!! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Harkonnen Posted April 16, 2002 Author Share Posted April 16, 2002 No, no, no!!! :'(You have all missunderstood. I meant how much the solaris are worth compared with the curensy of the dollars today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acriku Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 But Thor, there was no dollar mentioned in the Dune Chronicles, therefore how could we know? Unless, I am wrong and I'll be quiet for now ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 There were few references to solaris for use in buying common stuff we have today (620,000 for 1 dcg of melange - but we have no melange to value it against!), so we cannot tell.

exatreide Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 hehehe good one arikuYes earth wmost likely last that long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefud Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 OK Thorup, I see what U mean. But we don't have any info about the price of any common goods so we cannot compare these two values. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
