I want to upgrade my Mac SE to 2.5 MB.  This requires two 1 MB chips, of
course, so does anyone have experience with this matter?  I'd like to know:

     1.  What are some reputable, cheap sources for the chips by mail order?
     2.  Who should I stay away from?
     3.  Is chip brand important from the reliability point of view?
     4.  What chip speed is necessary?
     5.  Is 2.5 MB even enough, os is there a good marginal return on
         investing even more in a full 4MB upgrade?
     6.  Is the installation difficult?  Special tools?  re instructions
         available anywhere, maybe even from readers?

Many theanks for your help!
