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.
