The machine was only manufactured for about 9 months. In
fact, it was already on the way out by the time a lot of the reviews
started showing up in the magazines. It'd be interesting to know how
many were manufactured...it'd be a nice thing to add to the FAQ.
Generally though, the people that the 2000 was geared to were a
different group (business users) than those that the 1000 series was
geared towards (home users). The 2000 was an excellent buy
considering it's capabilities.
