Yeah, Dove can do it all for you.  However, to do it right (CMOS) will
probably be close to the Apple price.  However, expandability will be
on your side with the Dove (I got Apple's because of the discounts we
get through the company).

Jam bag the keyboard.  The Mac Plus keyboard isn't a far sight over
the regular Mac one.  Get a real keyboard from somewhere else.  I hear
the PC Mac keyboard is really quite good.  Beside, you can't play
MacLanding on a Mac Plus keyboard (no Enter key). :^)
