Hello networld.  I am thinking about upgrading my computer slightly and I
wanted to get some ideas before I do anything.  This is my current
configuration:

386/33 motherboard with Intel 387/33 coprocessor
8mb RAM
Western Digital Piranna 200mb hard disk (13ms)
ATI graphics ultra 1mb
Seiko CM-1450 1024x768NI monitor
5 1/4" 1.2mb floppy drive
3 1/2" 1.44mb floppy drive
Also, CD-ROM, Colorado Jumbo 250 Tape backup and Proaudio Spectrum 16 sound
card.

I am currently running DOS and Windows 3.1, but I was thinking about upgrading
to OS/2 2.0 (no flames please).  I wanted to upgrade one of 3 things:

1) Upgrade to 16mb of RAM
2) Getting a second hard drive (My current hard drive is nearly full).
3) Upgrade to a 486DX/50 motherboard.

Any suggestions or comments are appreciated.

     So how does this .sig thing work anyway?
