>Does anyone know what cards exactly are being developed for the 2000 ?
	Commodore has announced that an 80286 version of the bridge card
will be released, though not at the time of the 2000's introduction (soon).
A 68020 card is also "in the works", but no date is set for its release, as
far as I know.

	What new custom chips?  Well, actually, I've heard of the "Fat
Agnus" chip, which is simply the old Agnus chip with some of its support
circuitry now included on the chip, supposedly for cost reduction.  C-A
doesn't seem to be talking too much about the rumored 2Meg addressable
graphics chips et all...
