My once impressive 128K Mac is now barely adequate; it's time to upgrade.
Can someone help me out with "do-it-yourself" 128 -> 512 upgrade instructions? 
Besides swapping out the RAMs, what else do I need to do?  

What's the best (read "most reliable for least money") upgrade path to 
eventually reach 1 Meg with an up-to-date system?  Has Apple reduced their
price for the upgrade to a Mac+?  

I'll probably take it in steps, starting with a home-brew 512K upgrade,
then buy the new ROM/800K drive before seeking out a 3rd party SCSI and 
further memory.  Any opinions/experiences on the pros and cons of any firm's 
upgrade products/services would be greatly appreciated.  (I'll wait on asking 
for hard disk recommendations until I have more money. :-) )

If anyone wants a summary of responses, let me know.

thx,    Mickey Reynolds			akgua!akguc!mrr
