The A600 can take upto a 4Mbyte SRAM PCMCIA card.

The A600 can take any size of Compact Flash (using a PCMCIA to CF adapter with drivers) but it can only be used as a hard disk (not RAM) and I dont think you can boot from it.

If you get an A600 trapdoor expansion, avoid the Marpet ones which take SIMMs. They are too heavy and as such often come loose (yellow screen of death).

If you get an A600 accelerator (rare, expensive) make sure that you get a PCMCIA friendly one. (Assuming you want to use the PCMCIA slot)

You can add PCMCIA ethernet cards and wireless ethernet cards.
