$1549 for an LJIII plus $150 for the memory (I'm assuming 2 Meg) is an
okay price.  I bought mine in New Jersey for $1525 by from an outfit
that's also a vendor to my corporation and offers a slight employee
discount for private purchases as well.  I did not buy memory (I forgot
to!), but I've done enough research to know that $150 is a pretty good 
price.  Just make sure that the board you buy - assuming that you are
indeed buying 2 Meg - can accept an additional 2 Meg on the same board.
Assuming, of course, that you intent to expand beyond 2 Meg.

By the way, two of my friends bought the LJIII and discovered that their
existing "generic" printer cable would not work.  One bought an HP
printer cable for about $35 (!); the other bought a printer cable from
a reputable outfit called Black Box, for about $25.  When I mentioned
this to my sapesperson, he pooh-poohed that idea, said that my old
cable would work, and he was right.  So just take this as a word of
caution.

Also, I would suggest that you splurge and buy paper specifically
intended for use in a laser printer; it's wonderful.  I went to my
local office supplies discount supermarket ("Staples") and bought a
ream of Hammermill brand paper labeled, I believe, "Laser Bond."  It was
about a buck more (around $5.49 for a ream) than regular paper, but well
worth it.  What's another dollar when you've just bought an LJIII?

Also, I recently went to a computer show and bought a nifty plastic
dust cover that covers the printer with paper tray in place.  With two
youngsters in the house it was well worth it; under $10.  Good luck.
