Yes, pretty much the same. The 1500 would have had more bragging rights since it's far rarer, but from a user perspective there's no difference.
Hi:
Rather than create a new thread - didn't get 1500 it was too difficult to transport (I don't drive).
Is all of the above still true for an Amiga 2000 - I have the opportunity to buy one of these, is it worth it better/worse than 1500.
pros/cons
