The solution i use for it is to make a remote desktop connection to my PC put it in window mode (640*480*16 so it fits nicely on my 1152*900*16 wb screen) set browser (firefox) to max screen size and there you go firefox on your miggy, well not really :-D ,


He he, I like it. :-D  If only the Siamese system had continued development.  :-(

A towered Amiga can look very nice, as I posted earlier check out Revanche.
I like the idea of a tower machine for expansion and a wedge for potability, if you don't mind being a bit brave you can get a lot of stuff in a wedgey, including a PSU, look at a few PC modding sites for diddy little ones and with a bit of hacking it'll fit. Add a wireless PCMCIA card for Ami joy...
..but a tower still gives you more expansion however much you squeeze into a wedge.

Damn have I seen some ugly Amiga 1200s in PC cases, even ones designed specifically for the Amiga.


So true...but I've seen even more ugly PCs. :-)
