Notes/comments:
  1. Michael Sinz notes "there was a 2.04 that we did that looked like 1.3 (for an inside joke/raid on a person who did not upgrade to 2.x and yet he was a 2.x engineer/tester)."
  2. Used in early Amiga 3000's as a "Superkickstart" (software-based ROM image file). As a side note, the 3000UX actually shipped with both 1.3 and 2.04 Superkickstart disks and Operating Systems.
  3. Early Amiga 3000's (with 2.00) had no CompuGraphic Intellifont outline fonts. This was added from 2.04 on.
  4. Andy Finkel notes that v1.4 was switched to v2.0 "when the Workbench graphics changed from the 1.3 look and feel to the 2.0 semi-3D look. Henri Rubin thought the new look was strong enough that we should go to 2.0. Besides, Apple was incrementing their major release numbers at the drop of a hat, so (numberwise) we were falling behind."
  5. Richard Lane notes that there was a tool called "WBConfig" (stored in Prefs) supplied with early beta versions of Workbench 2.0 for the A3000. This tool went on to become the "ClickToFront" commodity & the "Workbench window as backdrop" was moved to the Workbench menu.
