Though he started out as a 128K, he now has 128K ROM and 2 Meg RAM. I'm still using the original battery. The only problem has been the power supply, which has been replaced once. Therefore, the total repair costs over just under four years have been about $150. Not too bad ... MultiFinder runs great with the 2 Meg, by the way.
