@Balrogsoft: Actually, 2Mb Chip was always the maximum intended for the A1200, the idiots in charge at Commodore initially wanted 1Mb Chip to ship so they could then sell an expansion with the other 1Mb Chip RAM and an RTC, that's why we have the clockport, fortunately memory prices dropped sufficiently before release that they ditched that moronic idea.

AGA would have been extended later on to be able to handle 8Mb RAM, but it was never implemented what with the liquidation and all, no produced Amiga was ever going to have anything near 8Mb Chip RAM, Maybe the AAA stuff they were working on before the closure, but that never really got anywhere.
