I need something more Message-ID: <1990Apr9.205903.15824@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu> Date: 9 Apr 90 20:59:03 GMT Sender: John Philip Reply-To: jp4@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu Organization: Columbia University Lines: 14 Xref: dino comp.sys.mac:27520 powerful. My dilemma: Should I upgrade my Mac+ or sell it and get a new computer altogether (something like an SE/30, through the university). If I should upgrade, where can I get decent chips and a good accelerator? Keep in mind that I have never opened up my Mac and would be hesitant (but not unwilling) to open it up to install the Ram chips. Also keep in mind that I am a possible Comp Sci major who currently has to do a lot of word processing. I (like many other students) don't have much money to spend. I have Hypercard and ATM fontmanager so I need to have more than 1 MEG of memory so I can use both at once. Right now, ATM takes up so much memory that I have to turn it off each time I need to use Hypercard (which is often). If it helps, I also have an Imagewriter II and a CMS 30MEG drive. Please e-mail responses. Thank you very much. From: jp4@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu (John Philip) Path: cunixa.cc.columbia.edu!jp4
