Ha, it just comes to show that the majority isn't always right. The best Amiga ever made without a doubt was the CD32.............it is the closest thing to what an Amiga is all about............Im talking about auto boot just like a console.........no stupid PC like start up and waiting just straight foward..........insert a CD, it goes to a CD menu, insert a game.........boots up with no typing, insert a Video CD, plays by hitting the play button, insert a CD+G, and it will display the words to the song, if you have an SX-1 or SX32, it boots up to workbench............definitely one of the Amigas with the least problems.............if the 4000 had the ability to do all this then it would be best. CD32 also had standard 6 button pads, a headphone jack, a CD - ROM drive, an off button on the computer rather than on the brick, Had composite Video Out, S-Video Out, RF out, and if u have an SX32 give it a VGA out and RGB out, thats 5 Video Outputs! and S-Video is essential if you want RGB like output to a TV.
 The A600 is an excellent machine...........just wish it had an expansion port like the 500.

 The 2000 is the Ugliest Amiga ever made and is a huge Behemoth, the 3000 looks way too much like a PC jr and the 4000 desktop looks too plain ( The 4000T is very neat though) and the 500 is another huge monster and way too many hanging parts especially that stupid RF modulator that didnt screw on, and the A1200 i like only because its AGA and looks like and extended A600, but is also not as wide as a 500, and of course the one and only Lovely A1000, a really nice setup especially at the time if u had the monitor and external disk drives

The CDTV looked ecellent but sucked bigtime.

Now funny enough, I have had all these Amigas before except the CDTV and the 4000T
CD32 is actually the best Amiga ever made by Commodore!...

Quote: The CD32 plays standard VCDs?

 Yes, The CD32 plays Standard VideoCD's and even recorded ones that you make with the Terrapin VCD recorder or the ones for the Philips CD-i and the ones you burn with NERO on windows...........of course
to play the movies, the CD32 requires that you have the Full Motion Video Card installed such as I have.

As far as what everyone has said about what is their favorite Amiga, I agree to some extent because all Amigas are Amigas and have that Amiga feeling which only Amiga users know.........so what ever Amiga you had, it has its meaning for you.

 As for me, My fave is always the A600, the CD32, and the A1000................I have a hard time picking one.
