Re: Advantages of 3.1 ROMs and OS 3.5/3.9

I originally upgraded to 3.1 roms because Eyetech were doing a decent rom swap deal and they said 3.1 roms would be needed to fit the forthcoming AmigaOne card to my 1200. :( As you know, this sadly did not come to pass.

With 3.1 I found the booting a bit slower, and very occasionally it seemed to get a bit confused because of the delay and tried to boot from floppy - I think.

Anyway, later I decided as a serious Amiga fan I should get OS3.9, and although I had some difficulty getting it all up and running properly - my Blizzard 1260 has never co-operated with Blizkick - it now all works very nicely, and I can tell myself, that at least in classic Amiga terms, I am "current".  :)

Probably my favourite thing is that it comes with its own professional TCP stack, Genesis, oh yes and big Hard drives work with no messing about.
