Probably the easiest way is to get the hard drive package from Misosys, which
includes case, power supply, controller, host adapter, cables, and a 20MB
Seagate drive for about $495.  Their order line (NOT tech support/questions!)
is 1-800-MISOSYS, and their tech line is (703)-450-4181.

As I recall, Jameco Electronics used to offer a RAM upgrade kit complete with
the PAL chip; I don't know how much they wanted for it or if they still sell
it.  In any case, GET THE EXTRA RAM!  Once you get used to using it, you'll
wonder how you ever got along without it....!
