A friend of mine is purchasing a Mac in a couple of days and has a few
questions:

         1)     Where can I find the cheapest 256K chips (I plan on
                upgrading when the warranty runs out or I feel like
                gambling).
     
         2)     Where can I get Inside Mac, how much does it cost,    
                and what do I get for my money?

         3)     Where do I get information about public domain software
                available for the macintosh?

         4)     Will a cheap 1200 baud modem (I saw an advertisement for
                one at $230) work with MacTerminal? Do I need special
                connectors?

If I get sufficient response, I'll post a summary...

Thanks for your time.
