and thanks guys

some more questions .......

1)if get my hands. on a PowerPC 603e @ 160-240 MHz ,is it advisable to install it in the trap door expansion slot??? and will there be space to attach a fast memory and a graphics card in the same space . I always loved the idea of a keyboard+processor+memory+media drives all in one unit..i was thinking of rippng out the cooling fan of my old laptop and putting it into the miggy

2)is the shark hardware acelerator better than the power pc?

3)is there a USB edvice availible for the miggy 1200?

thanks guys

hmmm damn......so that means the next best OS to on it would b the OS 3.9 ? ....hmmm

sorry to bother you guys with questions but i am planning to freiking loose my intel based system and use my Amiga. for the future.

I beleive i can use miggy to surf the internet (right???)with the right tcp/ip stack, listen to music with appropriate hardware,do a lot of art work on it..........well thats all i want the computer for......once i am off from work..........

thanks again.

Bother? Questions are a great deal why there are things like a.org =).

You can use the internet on a miggy yes. Be aware that the browsers are prehistoric and without extra graphics hardware it will be dogslow in 256 colours max. on an A1200 on A4000. A high end 68k (040 or 060) would also be needed to make it remotely comfortable.

If by listening music you mean MP3s, well, that is possible with 68k but anything below a 060 and it hogs up the CPU. There is however extra addon hardware available (MASPlayer) which hooks to the parallel port and takes the decoding load off the CPU. There are ofcourse also a gazillion mod files available which doesnt take alot of CPU oomph to play.

And there are plenty of art packages available indeed.

THANKS DUDE YOU RULE!!!!......heres another aimed at you and the others is the blizzard 1260 and the blizzard ppc  different? what is the best and the most powerful acceraltor card availible for the miggy where in i can add colossal ram to it...i am planning on a huge budget so hit me..............
