- There has only ever been one revision of the A2620, at least to my knowledge (it
- was my board, so hopefully I would know about this, but I have been surprised
- before). I have never had the opportunity to examine an A2620 that failed to
- run 2.0 with Revsion 6 or later EPROMS. My guess is that a small number of them
- have some kind of defective part that wasn't much of an issue until now. The
- boards we have tried here, including some original pre-production boards, all
- work.
