I'm writing this note on a 512K Mac that was a 128K Mac yesterday.  The
upgrade set me back only $275.  I have the System and the Finder
and Macwrite in RamDisk, and it is superfast.  I took the Mac apart and
looked at the board, and the work looks extremely good.  It passed the
memory test and the Mactest program.

The job was done by a local Boulder electronics wizard named Marty
Haase.  He is willing to do the same for anyone who wants it done.  If
you have been wanting a Fat Mac upgrade but found the price too high,
now's your chance.  Marty can be contacted at (303) 444-7733.


As usual, I have no personal or financial ties with Marty, I met him
yesterday for the first time.  My only interest in this is good quality
work done for a reasonable price.
