Wish I kept my mouth shut now!
Not actually tried using a CFlash card yet myself, though I have purchased the necessary
kit. Also, my A600's are still both down :(
Perhaps I can find the time to look at them over Christmas (once my brother has gone back
to his place).
My laptop (Dell Latitude C610) appears to have 2 PCMCIA style slots too (one is currently
occupied with a wireless LAN card which I don't use), but I'm more into retro gear
than modern PC (or Mac) stuff so I know nothing about type 1 or 2 etc.
Getting back on topic, you may wish to know that the Amiga 600 can have a maximum of 6MB
RAM using original expansions units (1MB built-in, 1MB in trapdoor and 4MB (fast RAM) via
PCMCIA RAM card) or there is a modern piece of kit that can be fitted internally to add
something like 128MB of RAM (I don't have this).
I own a 2MB PCMCIA RAM card and another PCMCIA card that can have 4Mb (Megabits, not MB)
RAM when fully populated - I haven't used this yet, so I don't know whether
it's populated or not!

be bugging you with questions before too long LOL LOL.
So what's the largest cflash card it can utilize? I
assume that's a type 1 slot, although I don't know the
difference between a type 1 or type 2. My *new* IBM PC
Radios have a pcmcia slot also (that's what it looks
like anyway.

No, sorry.
I prefer the Amiga 600, even though many consider it
to be the runt of the litter. However, it's the only
Amiga (other than the A1200) to have a PCMCIA slot
which has proven to be useful to me.
