To the best of my knowledge, the going rate for 512->512e upgrades
here in Silicon Valley/Bay Area is about $250 or so.

It is highly advisable to upgrade at least to the 128K ROM's as many
applications coming out today are making 128K ROM assumptions.  Call
it ROM Snobbery - I have been guilty of it too.  But some software
developers are deciding it is no longer feasible to support all
machines.

Either upgrading to a Mac Plus or to a 512e (and then adding a third
party upgrade such as Levco Monster Mac or SuperMac Enhance) would be a more
desirable path.  Your machine would be far more usable for a far 
greater period of time as more advanced applications and systems software
come out requiring more memory.

And come on, who needs that car?  who needs to eat?  trade the car in
for Macintosh hardware!!!!! :-O 8-)
