Oh, and a "big" difference. It seems the original Beagleboard had no networking interface ? I missed that. The beaglebone black has MII based faster ethernet.
My guess though, is that *if* you did not need the DSP(seems to be a single, and not a dual ). The Beaglebone black *could* be used in it's place. It really depends on what you plan on doing I suppose, and there is a lot I'm sure I do not know about the Original Beaglebone. Such as it seems it has some sort of camera interface ? But what's more, there is also the Beaglebone green, that is very close to the Beaglebone black, except it has no on board HDMI framer, and has two grove connectors. Which seems to sell for ~$10USD less.
