It turned out later I got an A2000. Now I read a lot of news about the flickerfixer, etc, that goes into the Video slot of the *B2000*.. Needless to say I feel left out in th cold. LOSE lose. Thats a lot of money. I *am* happy with my amiga, but it really pisses me off that Commodore Sweden have not said *one* word about the two models, in which case I would explicitly have ordered (and perhaps waited for) a B2000. Now, my question.. What can I do? (Costly) Change of motherboard? Contacting the consumers "ombudsman"? 1/2 ;-) What is the word from CBM? Any help out there?
