Damn Troubles

Hey guys, my '78 Firebird is having a little trouble getting started. I've had the problem for a while now. The problem is that when you turn the ignition key to fire the engine... it doesn't start. I replaced the battery already and that worked for a while, but she's out again. I feel it might be the alternator or the starter. But I'm not sure. Any advice?

is it a spark problem? electrical? coil going bad? dist. going bad? starter going bad? alternator going bad?
