Yes, I agree completely with the other 2 replies.
If you look around, you can often pick up a 1MB STE for absolutely next to nothing.
As an example, I picked up a 520STE for a fiver a few weeks ago, and the guy who sold it me said he had some other atari bits, I said I would look at them, and there was a whole load of gear including games, Monitor, External Floppy, and 2 whole other ( not-working ) ST's, and he gave me the lot for a tenner.
So, the bargains are out there!
I have paid £150 for one TT, and £70 for the other, so thats a great bargain, my father paid £50 for his falcon, and that too is somethign you should jump at, but I will be honest with you, but this sort of bargain comes along once in a blue-moon, and its usually snapped up my someone before you get to find it ( That someone is often me! )
Even if you get a low-ram STE, you can often use PC Simms quite happily, I have done a few STE's up to 4MB and a lot of them do and some dont work with PC simms, but the price of simms is next to nothing anyway, so its worth a gamble!
