I tend to agree with guru-666, I like the classic Amigas in their original form.

@amiga92570,

I dunno, I had a semi-franken-amiga and felt I had actually removed some of the hardware's charm.  In the end the A1200 went back to its native case and I got a PC for the more demanding tasks.

@rkauer

I never understand why people "hate" PCs.  You dont -have- to upgrade unless you want the latest and greatest stuff. I'm using a late 90's win2000pro P3 laptop as my "net-connected-box" to type this, it cost me AUD$200 s/h and has been in use every day for about 2 years, with Kerio and AVG (both free) 2K still runs just as fast as when I first installed it, (just stay away from pr0n sites).  
I have 3 other PCs that have been very reliable, one runs Ubuntu, one is a high-end XPbased video editing suite and the third a XP based HTPC with emulators and AVstuff galore.

I -wish- I could say my Amigas were as versatile, functional and affordable back when I had them.

btw, An A500 isnt even very good as a doorstop, its better as a chock to stop your car rolling away. :-D
