Actually, it isn't a strange question to ask.

Back when I bought my first A2000 in '87 (A old B2000) I had a couple of games fail.  Strip Poker was one that comes to mind.  I wrote to the publishers and they sent me back a patched version that did run.  I bet these games were originally designed and tested on the A1000.

I'd definately get an A2000 over an A500 though.  It's more a case of being able to run additional programs that a 512KB A500 couldn't.

And the A600 is so cute, how could you not like it?


Answer:  Lack of a number pad.

As far as the Amiga family of computers go, the A600 is the slightly retarded cousin who turns up for Xmas dinner and spends all day dribbling gravey down his chin.
