Svobi:

Post your question to the Thinkpad list.
Many members are in Europe.
There's a lot of OS/2 users on the list too.
Consider joining it, even before you buy.
(They've just recently changed their location,
so older references may be in error).

This great list has a searchable archive of past submissions.
Your choice of the 600E agrees with many other list members.
I bought a refurbished 600E last December for all the same reasons.
Supports (up to) 544MB RAM and large drives -- I added a 20GB Travelstar.
Accessories, including batteries, are still available (try eBay),
and have become (relatively) inexpensive.

Perhaps you need to develop a US contact who would be willing to
act as your representative and ship stuff to you in Switzerland.
