I've seen it run graphics programs on an A500, faster than an SE. On the other hand, no AppleTalk. The best testimony I've heard for one of these things is from a friend who bought one. He is an Amiga expert and rather handy with a Mac as well. He had a good time showing it off to friends, but it was those demos that gave him the opportunity to sell it and get rid of it.
