The AmiDOS 2.0 issue is not so bad as the A3000 can be booted up on 1.3 as
well.  This solves a lot of incompatibility problems in the short run.  It does
leave you with some programs which cannot be run on a 68030; quite a few games
fall in this category.

I've been looking over the A2500 .vs. A3000 issue and have decided that
protecting my current "software investment" does matter to me.  As such I am
considering the A2500 because it can be booted with either 68000 or 68030 (but
only one AmiDOS, I think).

MS Word is not available for Amiga.

Hope that this helps.
