Whilst looking at the Amigakit site I spotted that they have the A600 1MB Chip ram expansion A603 in stock for £35.99.

Quite expensive, but it is the only way to expand the chip ram of an A600 to 2MB these days. It also has some advanced features, including a clockport to be able to connect and use some of the same clockport expansions available for the A1200 such as subway USB, silversurfer or Delfina.
It also interestingly has an expansion port for an upcoming ECS version of the famous Indivision flicker fixer. And reading some info this flicker fixer will be able to work with all OCS/ECS systems including A500/+, A600, A2000 and A3000.
The A600 will only be able to use it however in combination with this chip ram A603 expansion that has an adapter for it (I assume this is because of the A600's surfaced mounted chip design?). Vesalia are advertising a budle with both at http://www.vesalia.de/e_indivisionecs.htm but with no prices yet.
This could give you a very nice A600 system. And add the A608 8MB fast ram expansion for the A600 that is currently being manufactered by Zetro and a couple of other members of the Amiga community and it would be an amazing little Amiga.
Imagine the spec you could build:
- A600
- 2MB Chip Ram
- 8MB Fast Ram
- Scandoubler/flickerfixer
- Kickstart rom switcher with 2.05 and 3.1 roms (or maybe 3.1 and 1.3)
- buffered IDE interface
- Internal 2.5" IDE HDD or CF card adapter
- Internal laptop CD-Rom drive.
That would make one amazing little Amiga. I'm so tempted.
The only thing missing is an accelerator, but the 030 A600 ones are so rare and have a load of overheating issues, so it's not worth it. Better to opt for an A1200 if speed is what you need.
