Hey how's you!

Looks like you have yourself some interesting times coming up. I would like a 2000 because they are pretty expandable.

If you have 1mb chip ram I would hazard a guess that you have ECS graphics. Which is good in my opinion :) getting it to output sweet graphics may require a scan doubler so you can attach it to a lcd monitor or big TV. These can vary in price and my indi ECS cost about £80. But the picture quality is great and I have had 800x600 resolution out of my 600 with it :)

Kickstart roms can be bought off ebay. So scour that for newer roms if you wanna upgrade to 3.9. :)

Replacing the kickstart rom is easy. I did it with a flat bit of plastic and just gnetly worked either side of the chip. Then pop out it came :)
