I've two stock A500's (wb 1.2 & 1.3) plus an A1200 HDD.

My main system is my A1200 with 40Mhz '040, OS3.9, Mediator etc...... which is now ripe for replacement!

I'm waiting for OS4 to appear before I make up my mind, but all the usual solutions are being carefully considered and the advantages/disadvantages are weighed up.

Oh, and for gaming I've got a PS2 :-D

I own four Amigas:

1988 vintage A500 with Kickstart 1.2 ROM and 512Kb RAM expansion - this machine was donated by a friend toegther with an ailing floppy drive

1990 vintage A500 with Kickstart 1.3 ROM, Commodore A501 RAM expansion, Philips Cm8833 monitor and original box.  This was my very first Amiga and is much cherished.

1992 A1200 with Kickstart 3.0 ROM, 370Mb, 2.5" HDD

1992 A1200 with Power Tower, Mediator, Voodoo 3, Apollo 1240 40Mhz accelerator, 64Mb RAM, Soundblaster 128, 10/100 Ethernet, EZKey XS keyboard interface, Twister serial interface, 1 x 11 Gb HDD and 1 x 4.3 Gb HDD.

Lastly (but not included above) is my "virtual Amiga" which is courtesy of Win UAE running on my AMD Athlon 2500.  It's a sad fact that it's compatable with all the Amiga software I own (unlike the previous 4) and is pretty much all the Amiga I'll ever need.  

The UAE machine is used to run everything from vintage games to IBrowse, DPaint, music software etc and contains all my original games in .adf format.
