Doomy, care to explain us the things that make A2000 the "highest quality Amiga" ever? Plenty of detail, please.

@Gloomy

Made in Germany: How exactly does this make the product better? Zero argumentative value.

Rigid steel case with screws: A3000 and A4000 were rigid enough for my purposes, I don't think the A2000 had any advantage here. And I've seen some bombproof tower conversions in my time.

Power supply: what are the exact specifications; how much amps to each rail, as opposed to A500/A3000/A4000? Pardon me for not trusting your biased visual inspection.

Cooling fan: Japan/German made high quality fan? Is it double ball bearing? MTBF? As opposed to fans in other Amigas? What makes it special and worth mentioning?

Socketed design vs. surface mount: allows for replacement, but subject to oxidation of the socket/chip legs. And the A2000 is not the only Amiga with chips on sockets.

Zorro, video and CPU slots on motherboard: Why is this a better desing? It doesn't allow for easy replacement? And it makes the motherboard HUGE!

I am not convinced.  :-)
