Basing the quality of a given computer just on expansion capabilities is pretty lame.  And, the A500/A1200 are probably the most expanded Amigas from their given era.  The number of expansions for the A500 alone would probably outnumber the combined accellerators, memory cards, video cards, and zorro 3 cards available for the A4000.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

I disagree about the A3000 (probably because I have one that I bought new!).  It didn't have the same graphics as the A500, it was full ECS with 2M Agnus.  Combine that with the improved architecture, SD/FF, built in SCSI, HD floppies, etc. and it was great for it's time.  

Comparatively, the A4000 was a disappointment.  Removing SCSI and the SD/FF and not offering expected upgrades like DSP really hurt.  For it's time, the A4000 was much more overpriced than the A3000.
