Definitly worth picking up if you can as they really are rare and not
ebay-rare.  I'd love to have one.  As far as functionality is
concerned, there's nothing there that you wouldn't get with a garden
variety amiga 2000 with some upgraded custom chips.  But getting that
board in an a1000 form factor has some serious cool-factor.  I think
you can still find right-angle zorro adapters that might allow you to
fit a memory board, a buddha, or deneb board in there.  68k socket
processor upgrades would probably work also.
