Hi. Sorry to hassle y'all on so many different groups, but this is
a fairly important purchase for me so I need the widest possible input.

I'm looking for a Macintosh startup system that fills certain basic 
needs; I'd like to have at least 1 Meg RAM and (not essentially but
preferably) two 800K disk drives. A printer would be nice but
not necessary, as would a trackball to replace the mouse. Software
is not necessary at all; I'd be buying new MIDI applications anyway.
Candidates would be the Plus, SE (I'm dreaming) or a 512K with a 
memory upgrade (preferably one that's already had the 512e package
installed as well). The most critical factor is pricing; I'm not
rich, and the less I can spend, the better off I'll be. Let's put it
this way; I have access to educational discounts, and I'd STILL have
problems paying for a Mac Plus with an extra drive. |-< 

If anyone has such a system they'd be willing to sell, in good working
order, please email me at either of the addresses below. I'd also 
appreciate informed estimates of what such a system, with or without
the optional parts (2nd drive, printer, trackball) should cost on today's
market, so I know what to expect. Many thanks.
