I wish you luck in finding either one... I think they may be difficult to find these days... unless you're willing to pay the big bucks I suppose.

[strike]The MegaChip kit is great in rev6 mobo but you still have to do the 1MB mod and add 512KB from the trap door module and the MegaChip to get 2MB (Ooops, I should have clarified, for the NON + model). That, of course leaves you with no fast ram unless you have an A590 or a trap door board with more than 512KB of memory... but still worth doing (NON+ Model). I'm not sure if, the 2MB mod (if even needed - thx OM for clarifying) on A500+ leaves you with no fast memory. But, you might still be able to add a trapdoor board to get fast memory. Really don't know about the + model - never had one.[/strike] Arrrggg! Never mind - not relevant to Lurch's question... Sorry Lurch! :)

Too bad AmigaKit can't get any more of the MiniMega kits. Supplier thing I suppose. You try try to PM them as sometimes they have a few "spares" lying around. https://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=915
