Hear, hear.  I use a 128K Mac.  It has performed beautifully for years.  The
first year I only had one disk drive.  Then I got a 10Mbyte hard disk.  I'm
finally forced to upgrade memory in order to run Light Speed C.  In any
case, I did a lot of useful work with a hoplessly outdated machine for a long
time.  Staying state of the art is prohibitive financially.  Most of
the high performance upgrades are things people want, but seldom really
need - particularly if you pay for it out of your own pocket.
