Currently, I have an unenhanced Macintosh 512K.  Recently I have 
become very interested in Hypercard programming.  I am also
interested in running some of the more advanced programs like 
Microsoft Word.  Therefore, I would like to upgrade to a Macintosh
Plus.
 
     What are some of the options available to me.  I have thought
     seriously about buying a new Mac Plus, but would rather not
     spend that much.  Would it be best to use an Apple upgrade,
     or a third party upgrade.  What are the alternatives to 
     upgrading to more than 1 megabyte of RAM.  What are costs
     likely to be?  Are there any Apple dealers in the Chicago
     area that will install third party upgrades?

     Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
