I just don't get it.  I remember a year ago or so when the A3000 came out.
Didn't it have both 2.0 and 1.3 ROMS?  Although 2.0 ROMs weren't finalized,
Why has it taken C= a year to produce those chips for retrofit into A2000s and
A500s?  Will the entire ECS be available for <A3000 machines?  You would
think that C= would get on the ball.  This is almost getting to be as bad 
as Steven Jobs' NeXT initial announcement.
