Commodore Amiga 2500
Developer: Commodore International
Launch date: 1989 |
The A2500 systems were based upon the final revisions of the
A2000-B motherboard design before the A3000 was released. The first
model was released during 1989 and was most popular in the US and
Canada, appealing to the high-end user and professional market.
There was very little difference from previous revisions of the
A2000, the most notable being the addition of processor cards
increasing the system speed.
The A2500 range consisted of three specifications:
- The A2500/020 shipped with an A2620 processor card featuring a
68020 and 68881 14 MHz.
- The A2500/030 with an A2630 featuring a 68030 and 68882 25
MHz.
- Of particular interest was the A2500UX. This shipped with
AT&T Unix System V Release 4 operating system rather than a
version of the AmigaOS, as well as a three button mouse. A tape
streamer and Ethernet card were an optional upgrade.
