It originally sold for 999. It was a variation of the Amiga 2000 , and was released only in the United Kingdom . It differed from the A2000 by having two internal floppy disk drive floppy drives instead of one, the second being in place of the hard disk drive . The A1500 had no hard disk drive as standard. A1500s were easily convertible into A2000s by addition of a hard disk controller and associated drive , and then simply peeling off the A1500 label revealing the A2000 label beneath. The reason for the UK only release may have been the existence of a desktop upgrade kit for the Amiga 500 made by Checkmate Digital and also called A1500 ref http www.amiga hardware.com showhardware.cgi?HARDID 6 Checkmate Digital Checkmate A1500 ref , and Commodore trying to keep the name for themselves.

The Amiga 2500 , also known as the A2500 , was not a distinct Amiga model, but simply a marketing name for a Commodore International Commodore Amiga 2000 bundled with a Motorola 68020 or Motorola 68030 68030 based accelerator card. ref name Amiga2000 cite web title Amiga 2000 url http www.old computers.com MUSEUM computer.asp?c 63 date 2005 accessdate 26 December 2009 ref The accelerator cards used by the A2500 the A2620 and A2630 were also available separately as upgrades for the A2000. 68030 versions were referred to as A2500 30 . ref name Amiga2500 30 cite web title Amiga 2500 30 url http www.amiga4ever.nl systems.php?id 25 date 2004 accessdate 26 December 2009 ref Because the A2500 had a Motorola 68000 on the motherboard that was otherwise unused, the design was not very cost effective. A project to replace it with a 68020 on board began, intending to be a Zorro II based 68020 machine, but the project eventually became the Amiga 3000 when Dave Haynie sought to include his new Zorro III bus. The A2500 remained in production after the release of the A3000, primarily because the original Video Toaster would not fit in an unmodified A3000 case. Until the release of the Video Toaster 4000, the A2500 was the fastest computer available for use with the Toaster.
