Well said Stuart! And enjoy writing that novel in absolute silence -- even the best laptops can't offer that! And at the risk of opening up an old wound ... please don't do ANYTHING to that 512k that can't be easily removed without altering the system -- AND be well aware that the 512k is severely compromised to power even itself. Anything you do to increase the load on its 20 year old power supply will most likely quickly shorten its remaining life. Treat it like the treasure it is and follow Stuart's advice. Try to operate it only within the parameters of Apple's original 1984 operating guidelines and genuine Apple accessories unless you are prepared to repair your analogue board when (not if) it dies.
