I would strongly recommend getting an SE with dual floppies, because:
1) it is faster when you are copying floppies,
2) saves you time and aggravation doing disk swaps,
3) it is less sensitive to being moved around than models with an internal hard disk,
4) and it is about $800 less than the model with a 20 Mb internal HD.

ALSO, you can buy some 30 Mb external HDs for less than $800 (and believe me,
after a few months you'll be glad you have 30 Mb rather than only 20)
particularly if you call, and inquire/buy from any of the following places:

MacConnection:  1-800-622-5472 (for $3 extra you can get overnight shipping by
Airborne)
Address is:  14 Mill St., Marlow, N.H. 03456

Another place for good savings on Mac software/hardware (and also Federal
Express overnight delivery for $3 extra) is MacWarehouse in New Jersey. 
The number is:  1-800-255-6227

Another place is Computer Ware in Palo Alto, Calif. 
Their number is:  1-800-235-1155
(Please note:  ComputerWare's prices aren't as good as MacConnection's or
MacWarehouse's, BUT they are the only place I know of that sells most MIDI
software and peripherals at discount).

I hope this helps.
