A friend has the opportunity to get a 512K mac with 800K internal
and 800k external drive plus macwrite,paint,draw for about $1000.

Any reason not to do so?  He's not a bigtime computer user. He'll just
be doing word processing and maybe a little spreadsheet.

Any problems with old roms vs new roms etc??

Thanks.

Any replies can be mailed to me.
