Nevin, 2.0 is pretty compatible these days. I have 2.03 (the version currently provided with A3000s) and have found very little that won't run under it. I've heard that 2.04 (apparently, if Rumor is correct, the version that'll be ROMed) is even better. I can verify that CrossDOS 4.02 and Quarterback 4.0 work with 2.03. Quarterback's window border looks kinda funny (this was a more common problem with earlier revs of 2.0), but the program functions properly. The latest update to WordPerfect also works, but I neither have it nor plan to get it. Currently the 3000 can load either 2.0 or 1.3 at power-up. But I imagine 1.3 will be dropped once 2.0 goes to ROM. I hope so anyway…I want 2.0 to take over. 2.0 is _so_ much nicer an operating environment than 1.3! I never boot 1.3. Unless you plan to put a Toaster in your machine, or must have a 5.25" drive installed, the 3000 is the better Amiga. Go for it. -Dave-
