I'd like some advice on current options for upgrading an old
128K Mac to 512K.  I remember back several months when this was an
ongoing discussion, but things seem to have died down recently.

Unfortunately, I had no use for the information at the time, and things
may have changed since then.  (I don't have a Mac, this is for a friend
of mine).

Anyway, I'd like whatever info people have regarding the best way to
go on this, with respect to price, problems, and other gotchas (such
as warranty problems).

At the time of the last discussion, the cheapest path to take was to
do-it-yourself with the help of a Dr. Dobb's article.  Can anyone comment
on the advisability of this route?  How much would this cost at current
prices and how tough is it?

If it makes any difference, I'm in the Los Angeles area.

Please respond by mail, unless you really think the net wants to go into
this topic again!

Thanks much for whatever advice you might have to offer.
