I own an IBM model 50 (no notes of sympathy, thank you) and would like to 
pimp out the machine from its current state. In particular I want to 

	i)	replace the hard disk with something a little roomier
		(40-60 mb)
	ii)	add some more memory (preferably a board with both EMS
		and extended memory potential

The kicker is that I must do this on a student budget (i.e. cheaply). I
would like to here from people who have already performed similar upgrades
on the same machine. 
Thanks very much.
		Sterling
