Alternatively, one row at 0, one row at 0.300" and one row at 0.600"  Then 
there are only three rows of drilled holes with capability for both row 
spacings.  (saves some drilling)

If you add another row of pads each side of the 20pin DIP you could then
use the wider 0.6 spacing chips as well. You just fit the correct socket
for the chip you want to use. If you wanted to make the board able to
switch between the two chip sizes, then you could use single in line
sockets, but I was thinking more along the lines that you would use the
board for one type of chip, and just fit whichever socket was required.
