The Germans didn't name their PC boards like we do here (Lorraine, Zorro,
Rock Lobster, etc.).  The West Chester version of the A2000 was called
"The BOSS" for some time, though due to management complaints and limited
spare room on the board, the PCB's "code name" was removed.  Better that than
removing the "HAYNIE/FISHER", or the required model/rev information.  If 
you've got TONS of free PCB real estate like the A500, these things work out
a bit better.
