I don`t think it is about an A2000, but about a card called the Video Toaster in the A2000 version. Maybe an A2000 with a Video Toaster card.

The main difference it that it doesn't support the full-color wipes like the A4000 Toaster, which requires the AGA chipset.

The Video Toaster 4000 does NOT require the AGA chipset. I have one installed in my Amiga 2500 computer and it works great. It works really well with my GVP EGS 28/24 Spectrum video card, which goes beyond AGA.

oops, I worded that poorly. What I meant was that the 4000 Toaster required the AGA chipset to do the full-color wipes instead of the solid-color wipes like the origial toaster. Does the spectrum card let you get around that?

All but the rev. 6 A2k boards have minor video noise issues from what I remember Dave Haynie saying.

-=edit=- thats motherboard, not toaster card.
