After a long hiatus and looking back at Amiga memories through rose tinted glasses I have decide to resurrect my machine(s). I have 2 Amiga's:

A500 Kickstart 1.3 + Action Replay MKIII
A1200 Kickstart 3.0 + Compact Flash IDE (4Gb) + Compact Flash PCMICA reader + 4Mb Fast Ram

I see all these flash Workbench screenshots with colourful icons and hires backgrounds and I'm wondering how I can have the same on my A1200. If I purchase a Kickstart 3.1 ROM will that help me get started?


Another good option is BetterWB.  It's the cleanest 3.1 look with all the updates.  The last one was release less than a month ago.
