My A2000 came in a box that was originally used by CBM Germany. It had tiny
white lables applied to the side saying it was shipped from West Chester, and
is a B2000 with the monochrome video jack.  I guess that either the German
boxes are printed in West Chester and so were "available", or that CBM
Germany gave CBM USA some boxes so that they could ship on schedule. Of
course this is just a guess, since I don't work for CBM.
