I translate your sentence: Estas computadoras son tan caras como aquellas.
Verbo ser/estar + tan + adjetivo + como

Estas computadoras tienen el mismo precio o cuestan o valen lo mismo.

Here is my effort, I'm not a native speaker:
Cuestan lo mismo - they cost the same. You could use, at least in some parts, valen, instead of cuestan.
El precio/costo es igual - the price is equal/the same.
Estos computadores son tan caros/costosos que eses - These computers are as expensive as those.

Estos computadores. Estes is not correct. The plural of este is always estos. - gone, Jan 23, 2011
Thanks, I never, ever knew that. Odd that that one slipped past me... - afowen, Jan 23, 2011
Estas computadoras computer=computadora or ordenador - 0074b507, Jan 23, 2011
They are masculine here in Colombia, this dictionary suggests that they are male in (all of?) Latin America. - afowen, Jan 23, 2011
A friend has just told me that computador would more usually be a desktop while computadora a laptop. - afowen, Jan 24, 2011
