It’s a ballpark number, anything from 100kg+ would have made a 90s equivalent too heavy. The difference compared to consumer computers is expected once you realize it includes multiple interlinked triply redundancy systems and the wiring, mounting structure, power supply system, shielding, etc. for all that.

A100′s weigh less than 4kg. Three of them would be 12kg. I find it hard to believe that Falcon 9′s use 100kg worth of computer.
