I don't hate it.

I was in awe of it when it first came out (I was 15). Yes, it could have been better and we know where corners were cut but that meant it was affordable!

(By comparison, look at modern graphics cards. You can buy the super-duper latest card for £600, or the 'ultra cut down version, don't bother cos it'll be slower than what you already have' for £100 - the only problem with AGA is that we were only given a cost-saving version, not the super duper version.)
A1200 in DIY Tower. 3.2 ROMs (softkicking 3.2.3), OS 3.2.3, CF card, CD RW and IDE to SD adapter running off the internal IDE port (using the A4000 4-port IDE adapter from Amigakit), Pistorm 32 lite with Pi4/2GB/Emu68 or Blizzard 1230-IV, with 32MB 60ns RAM and 50MHz 68882 FPU.
