Great -- glad to hear it.

What peripherials do you have for your 1000 ??? (It is apparent to me that
in 90% of the cases those that upgrade for "expandability" reasons haven't
expanded the one they have.

I wont , and havent ever bitched.

But in about a year , I will either be running a '030 or '040 (wish) Amiga
running UNIX or I will be buying a 486.  Look , except for expandability
(which I have already done) and the ECS (wich I am not impressed by) the
2000 gives me >0< in the way of extra power.  

I will wait ofr a MAJOR change to happen , (2500UX , 3000) before I buy
another Amiga because only THEN will it be a upgrade. And I'll keep my 1000
when I do.
