Nope. If you're in Perth just offload it to me ;-)

Seriously though, it's hard to think of a use for any Amiga except for 
nostalgia or hobby reasons.
If you do plan to keep the A2000, make sure the battery is OK and not 
leaking or it can easily destroy the motherboard if left.Removing the 
battery won't affect the operation of the computer and will ensure that it 
won't leak and destroy it.
