I dunno about that. As far as I can remember, the A3000's only difference
between the A2000 is the 030, ZorroIII and the ECS chip set. I have
upgraded my Old ChipSet to the Enhanced ChipSet, including both a MegAChip
with the 2-Meg Agnus and the ECS Denise (which I had to remove -- the
Toaster gives messed up buffers with the ECS denise in when I'm at RISD,
but when I go home for vacations, the ECS chip works fine <sigh> back to
OCS Denise now (BTW, by "messed up" I mean the DVs are the wrong colors,
with almost a key-type effect cutting through parts. really strange...)
Oh well.... Just my 2 cents...
