   If your budget is tight (say about $100), get an enhanced //e with
128K of RAM, and drop Appleworks classic (version 3.0 or 4.0). If you
have a bit more cash, get a used GS for about $200 and up (depending
on base model vs one with the 'trimmings' like more ram, a HD, etc).

   For information on the specs of the models, drop by the
comp.sys.apple2 FAQ at http://www.visi.com/~nathan/a2/faq/csa2.html
