[net.micro.mac] URGENT-Mac Upgrade Question

peggy@ism780 (03/01/86)

I am planning to have my 128K Mac upgraded to a 512K this Tuesday through
Voad Systems in Santa Monica.  Has anyone out there done any business with
them?  If so, would you recommend them?  Any special advice?

Thanks in advance-

I have a better idea. Find someone that is upgrading from a stock
512K to Mac+. Give them your 128K board and $200. They will give you
their 512K board. The $200 will cover the additional cost to them of
having a 128K when they go in for an upgrade. You will get a stock
512K board, which will save you $200 should you decide to upgrade to
a Mac+. You may even be able to find a dealer who would be willing to
sell you a used 512K that they received on a Mac+ upgrade. If they
sold it to you for $200, they would be making $72 profit, a
reasonable profit for about 5 minutes work.
