- Now here's a tricky question... With the advent of the proposed ECS upgrade
- (Did anyone else read that address?) Will they come out with 2.5? My personal
- bet is the next upgrade is going to be 4.0, and the split between Rel 2 and
- Rel 3 will go away. (Remember 4.0 is supposed to include DIG/RTG) And the
- only REAL difference between 2.1 and 3.0 ROMS is AGA.

- 3.0 will work on pre-AGA machines. You will need the ROMS however.
- I thought I heard the ROMS were 32-bit, and that may pose a problem
- for 500/600/2000 owners.
