Well.. the reason to upgrade is that the ECS gives you MORE! And that's all we
ever want right? MoRe!

It let's you use MORE memory for the graphics chips, it gives you MORE
resolution modes. 

It costs MORE money! ;-)

Besides if you don't get ECS, then when software comes out that takes advantage
of it, you won't be able to run it.

Get ECS just to stay current with Amiga's hardware capabilities. The same
reason you should upgrade to the new versions of Workbench when they come out:
                    
                    Keep up or get left in the dust.
