AmigaOS 3.5 isnt too great from what I've heard.
Get 3.9, it has the same system requirements and is supposedly better.

OS3.5 and 3.9 are very close to each other. OS3.9 would probably be the better bet, unless you see a good deal on 3.5.

3.5 can be made into the same functionality as OS3.9 with little effort.

OS3.5 (as well as OS3.9) works fine on a stock A3000.

Greetings,
  Why not try Clanto's Version of os3.x. As they put it on their Website. The os3.x is an os3.5 and other bits combined, found in os3.9. That's my first agenda soon as my copy of AF6 arrives and try it on my A1200. :-)
  What's to loose?

I have os 3.5 on my a3000 and it works fine mines an 030 with just 6 mb ram. os3.9 is a bit better but os3.5 is much cheaper secondhand .either way there better than os 3.1. :-)
