I must admit, some of your (Runequestor) threads I also find pretty motivating/inspiring to the point where I now *NEED* to find myself an a1200. Ive not had a functioning classic amiga for quite some time, and while Im a big fan of amithlon (and aros, but Im a bit off the "NG" options right now and are waiting until about april/may before I get involved in aros again for reasons that ClusterUK will anounce around that time) Im just itching to delve back into some custom chipset based fun again. 680x0 euae runs nicely on my amithlon box, but only at speeds akin to an unexpanded a1200. System friendly stuff runs at a speed neither MOS nor OS4 can touch, but there's a lot of good, fun software that I miss that requires both aga + '030 or better speed, plus it's fun seeing what results can be obtained on a custom chipset based machine. Ideally I'd like to run them both concurrently, with an expanded a1200 running off a t.v. tuner card from inside os3.9/amithlon. Best of both worlds
