The ECS Denise chip *will* work in the Amiga 1000. This will *not* allow
you to make use of the new extended video modes, however, because the
Denise must be refreshed by a matching ECS Agnes chip (which also knows
of the new modes). What you will get are the new Genlock modes. That's
about it, though.
