2.0 (the rom) does not require ECS. Of course, without ECS chips
you don't get any of the ECS features. I have no knowlege of how 2.0 will
be distributed/installed by the various sales companies for machines other
than the A3000. I would suspect a bundle with ECS chips, and ROM available
separately, but I don't know for sure and don't quote me on it, it's just a
guess.
