I've finally gathered enough money together to pick up a long-awaited 
memory expansion for my Amiga..  I've seen lots of talk here regarding 
hardware from different vendors, but haven't been able to draw any
conclusions ..  (Reading AmigaWorld doesn't seem to help, either). 

Could someone throw together a short comparison of the memory expansions
that are available, highlighting such features as:

	1) Speed (wait states, etc..)
	2) Bus Pass-thru
	3) Future Expandability (e.g. comes with 512K, expandable to 2mb,
				 plus other add-ons like battery-backup
				 clocks, etc..)
	4) Design of Cabinet (I've seen some LARGE and UGLY 
			      Expansion cabinets.  Yuk.)
	5) Cost	
	6) Personal difficulties with 
	     1) Apathetic Vendors
	     2) Setup
	     3) Reliability
	7) The best place to order one (i.e. Amigaworld advertisers, 
					the vendor, local dealer..)

The biggies here are:  1, 2, and 3. 

Thanks in advance!

	-Jeff
