Given conditions 1 and 2, I personally have recommended the Mac Plus because
it DOES NOT come with a fan which makes it practically silent  You do have to
decide which keyboard you prefer. My favorite is the old 512 keyboard. Of course
this is if I intend to use the Mac at home. At work, I have set up the office
with SEs because we want the expansion slot for accelerators and big screens.

But, the main point I want to make because I just found out about it yesterday
is that the SE 2/40 is not 100% compatible with programs written for other Macs.
I called up PCAI about a program of theirs that wasn't working, and they replied
that it would not work on a SE 2/40...BUT IT WORKS ON EVERYTHING ELSE WE HAVE!
Does anyone know what hardware difference there is?
