Hi Folks, I could use a little advice...

I currently have a 1040, Atari 30 Meg HD, monochrome monitor, and EPSON fx-80.
I am attempting to set up for heavy-duty word processing, DB work with some
desktop publishing thrown in.  Current software is:

	Wordperfect	Publishing Partner	Superbase 2

I plan on upgrading the DTP and DB sometime.  Here is the dilema:

I would like a laser, also.  I have an opportunity to get a HP Deskjet for a 
fairly good price.

Do I go for the HP Deskjet and work with what I have for now?
Do I (can I) upgrade the memory of the 1040 and get an Atari laser?
Do I upgrade the entire system to Atari's 'deal' (mega 4 + laser for 3995)

As a result of this, I may be selling my current system.  Anyone interested?
I think I may want to keep the epson, wordperfect, superbase 2, and possibly
the 30 meg (it is new).      )
