Trying to decide between a brand new stock A1200 OS3.5 Magic Bundle with 40G drive, or a 25mhz stock A3000. AGA is fun for games, but I think what I want to do is some programming and getting on the internet (not really browsing, just IRC, AIM, Email, and news). Can I even USE OS3.5 on a stock 2MB A1200?
Which should I get? I still have a deep attraction to the A1200 since it was my primary Amiga back in the day... but I'm trying to think future here. I could upgrade the 3000 to something which would surpass the A1200. Right?
Please dont recommend the A1. I'm not going to spend $1000 on a G3 MB, sorry

It's just not possible.
Thanks,
