Re: Using ANY amiga as a main computer?

For a while I was trying to use my SAM440ep-mini as my main computer, but was forced to guit (for a while) because I found myself setting it up more than getting things done.
Now with my new job and some family matters I have very little hobby time on my hands. I hope I manage to change the situation soonish.
Then I will set up AEROS+MOS+AOS4+AOS3 systems to run in parallel and with that combo I'm pretty sure I can happily use Amigalikes as my main system(s). (then bye bye Linux desktops, go where Windows and OSX went already, the dumbster)

If you lack time it's better you focus on a single machine, otherwise you'll spend more time configuring and installing stuff instead of using your favourite OS.


Yes.
My favourite would be AOS4, but to me it needs more tuning.
I have a hunch that with very minor tuning MOSmini can act as my main machine.
AEROS would provide a peek at AROS + mandatory mainstream+work apps in Amigish environment.
AOS4 would be there to play with & see how far it has come. (it can also provide firefox derivate if needed, sure, also AEROS can do it)
AOS3 for some madatory 68k HW enjoyment + authentic retrogames, etc.
