JimM has said many times "Don't put off buying an A2000 waiting for an A2500".
There will not be a new motherboard or anything like that; the A2500 is just
an A2000 with a 68020 in the coprocessor slot with 32-bit memory.  So anyone
who buys an Amiga 2000 now will be able to convert it to an A2500; don't
deny yourself the use of this fine machine waiting for the A2500 package
to arrive at the dealers.
