The A2320 has the same display enhancer hardware as on the A3000.  This
does not include the ECS chip set but the A2320 does work with this chip
set if you have it installed by automatically getting out of the way
when you use the new `productivity mode' of the ECS (which requires
AmigaDos 2.0).  Thus the A2320 can work in a system very well that both
has or does not have the ECS chip set and you will still get an improved
display. 

Hope this helps,
Scott Hood
