Harry, The 2 Meg Chip is different than the 1 Meg Chip. One is a part 8372A and the other is an 8372B. The 1 meg Agnus (8372A) is the Enhanced Agnus (officially the "Super Agnus") for the A2000 (and it will work in an A500 also). The 2 Meg Agnus is for the A3000. Normally, the A2000 doesn't have the ability to address 2 meg of CHIP RAM even with the 2 Meg Agnus chip…Dean's board corrects this situation. Don
