A500 os
« on: September 02, 2016, 08:31:08 PM »
What is the latest revision of workbench that can run on an UNACCELERATED Amiga 500 (with 10 megs of RAM) without being so slow that it's unusable?  Back in the day, on my original A500 I bought when I started college with their "student discount" plan, I only used 1.3, and never upgraded the KS to upgrade to 2.0.  I am thinking of upgrading the KS to 3.1 on this used one I bought a few years back, but, need to know if even WB 3.1 will run on it without slowing it down to a kludge.

Thanks!

Are you booting from floppy or is there a hard drive or some other mass storage?
