The funny thing is SAS coding has changed very little from your days. With the exception of new PROC's that have been added I'm guessing its the same as you learned it. It will still hate you if you forget that blasted semicolon. My boss here at work acquired the first computer for the station in 1986, an IBM PC with dot matrix printer and PC SAS. That was his "start-up package" for coming into the job new. I believe he told me it was around $5-6,000 in 1986 money. Fast-forward to now, we have 4 or 5 $1,000 computers sitting around, a handful of laser printers, and SAS cost us around $500/computer/year I believe.
