A2000 is the original, German-developed 2000. B2000 is the American remake,
which is easily recognized by it's 3 RCA jacks instead of two (composite B/W
video). It's main advantage is that it's upgradable (uses the chipset with
Agnus, Paula, Denise...). A500's and B2000's do, A1000's and A2000's don't.

I have a question there, myself: Is it possible to upgrade a B2000 to
2 MB chipmem as in A3000? Any problems with other chip upgrades?
