One of the Amigas at SIGGRAPH was labeled 2500UX and when it booted it
came up with an additional menu item when the two mouse buttons were
held down. When clicked on this new menu selection provided supperior
performance than the 68020 menu selection. Isn't it amazing what a little
menu selection can do. What was the box you ask? Guess!

Now I wish I looked at the back of the 2500UX, it was running NFS and had
people rlogin'ed to it.  Me wonders if it had a 2065. Wow AmigaDos
support for NFS, TCP/IP Wow WOW WOOOOOOW.  Drool drool drool.
