I'm actually bidding on a A600 HD at the moment - I've got an obsession starting here!
Yup...
I expect thet the 'final product' will be a {bleep}ised A500/+/600 HD - probably taking the bulk from the A500+ or A600 (such as mobo and IDE controller) and harvesting the others for components. If I don't get the HDD working, it's not the end of the world - I'll either have to get up once in a while :-o , or bodge a long floppy cable together.
The A500 and A600 are not really component compatible. THe A500 does have socketed chips, but the A600 is a single unit. You can't take it apart in any way.
