I would have to agree. If you play games, then the A1200 is the way to go.

I recently got AMIGA Forever 2011. It is very good and I do enjoy running it. Personally, I like having the real deal. If you like buying add-ons for your computer and cracking the case to install cards and upgrades, then a 4000 is probably the best.

Myself, I have an A3000 and it has 3.1 ROMS in it and I just put a Picasso II graphics card it and it runs really good. I probably won't play a lot of games on it, I am more interested in getting the most out of the OS, adding a USB card to it and challenging myself to get it on the internet. I also have a 1200 that I upgraded to a CF HD and a GVP 1230+ accelerator. I plan on doing the same thing with it as I am the 3000, but I want to connect it to my wireless network and get it on the net.

So, I like cracking cases and upgrading computers. I think if I had it to do all over again, I just would have gotten a 4000 and had the best of both, the big box 3000 and the AGA of the 1200.

It really depends on what your going to do with it.

Mechy is right.

Really, go with a 4000. You get everything you'd really want all in one package and have to option of the RTG card with the AGA. You have access to IDE devices that are just more common today than A3000 SCSI peripherals.
