When I had a 750C, I upgraded it in two ways. First, I added a 16Meg RAM
card to the 4 built in. Second, I moved to an 810Meg hard disk (largest
available at the time).

Now, I have a 755CE with a 32Meg RAM card (added to the 8 built in) and a
2.1Gig hard disk (largest available, without mortgaging my home, at the
time). (BTW, If you decide to go with a 16Meg upgrade, I can beat your $125
price, if you want my "burned-in" card.)

Today, I would not upgrade a 750C, unless it needed *only* memory or *only*
disk space. I saw a 365X (I think) P133 ThinkPad at Computer Discount
Warehouse for something like $1K a few weeks ago. I'd go with something
like that, and think about upgrading its RAM shortly thereafter.
