I guess I want 2 new Amigas just as there were always 2 types of Amigas available back in the day.  A low-end and a high-end.

They should both run the same OS.  AROS (when completed) or an OS3.9-4.0 type.

An A1200 type system somewhat like this.
68060 running around 60-75MHz.
128MB RAM.  Expandable to 1GB.
20GB Hard Drive.
CD-RW Drive.
High-Density Amiga compatible hard drive.  Via a Catweasel chip maybe?
AGA or AAA type chipset.  Real or fully emulated with support for OCS, ECS, and AGA modes.
Full USB support.

A full PC type big box system.
Either x86 or PPC system.  Speed whatever MHz.
512MB RAM.  Expandable to 1-2GB RAM.
80GB Hard Drive.
CD/DVD Burner
High-Density Amiga compatible hard drive.  Via a Catweasel chip maybe?
High-end video card/chipset to rival anything today for the PC but with emulated (although maybe not fully) support for older chipsets.
High-end audio same as video.
Full USB support.
Very expandable.

Both of those would sit in my stable and be used all the time.

As long as we're wishing...  :-)
