  I completely understand your (your mom's) dilemma.  I too had
disk space problems using large software packages like word  
perfect...even with a 3.5 inch disk.  

  Fortunately for me I found a company that sells TANDY 1000
compatable products for reasonable prices, after _MUCH_ searching.  
There is a company in Houston by the name of MegaHaus.  I 
purchased my first 32M hard drive for $329 +tax from them...
unfortunately, it had a defect but MegaHaus refunded my money.
That drive was a Miniscribe...but the one I have now is a Sanyo.
I haven't had any problems thus far...so I reccommend buying
a 32M Sanyo (42 ms) from MegaHaus.  Oh...this too was $329 but
their prices fluctuate each month. 

  Good Luck....if you have any more questions, respond to me 
directly.
