System Solutions may be able to help, they used to specialise in Atari
stuff (which was very mucha  musicians machine) but with Atari losing
some popularity they started doing Mac stuff too, I assume (and hope)
they are still going, when I spoke to them they were very friendly, only
too happy to help and were doing quite the opposite of trying to force
me to get the fastest machine available, try calling them on 01753
832212, 0181 693 3355 or 0181 693 1919.

I never understand the 2nd hand Apple market, people seem to be asking
almost G3 prices for 601 macs.  It's really very difficult to say
really, I suspect you paid quite a lot for it but you can get Umax
Pulsars (180mhz 604e) for about 700 quid these days so for a bare
machine I guess around 400 quid?

It might be a good idea for him to consider some sort of removable
storage, I recent bought myself a Syjet and I'm very pleased with it, 2
1.5gb carts and the drive for about 180 quid, unfortunately I think the
3gig deal ends in a couple of days, it performs very well too.
