Luca.
I recently encountered this info.

In order for TP600 to recognize full memory size,
one of the two memory slots needs to have PC66 module.
If a PC100 module is installed into the slot which
can take only PC66, the half bank of the memory module
is disabled.

I found that one guy successfully installed even
32MB onboard + 128MB PC66 + 256MB PC100 = 416MB total
on TP600.
