The memory is memory, and HD space is not.  Think of memory as an
Etch-a-Scetch and HD space as a filing cabinet.

Well, the only real difference I can think of is maybe you would need to get
an external case for the Mac.  Your Mac probably uses a SCSI HD, but small
ones can be had cheaply.  By small I mean under a 1/2 gig...still a LOT bigger
than anything you currently have.  Ebay would be the best place, or a local
computer show.....some vendors have used stuff....at least hear in Michigan.
