    Architecture of the 500 or 1000?

    Did they do traditional or “Microsoft Xbox” versioning? (Was 1000 before or after 500?)

      Short answer: 1000 came before 500.

      Nuanced answer: An Amiga (don’t recall the original name) was released at some point, and Amiga decided to make a cheaper alternative. This cheaper alternative was the 500, and the older model was retroactively renamed 1000.
