Welcome home. 1000 are cool. upgrades are limited but the basic stuff is around... somewhere. WinUAE is very nice for good classic amiga emulation and Amithlon is good for "highend amiga stuff" (what ever that is). I think that winUAE maybe better for your consumption. IMO Amiga kit is expencive. The base 1200 price is not bad... its the other things that add up. Look on amibench and ebay or around computer recycling places sometimes you can find a whole package for a good price, don't rush it. You can use winUAE to start getting back into the amiga thing... what kind of apps do you use?
BTW there are some ultra cool a1000 upgrades, including something called a phonix motherboard replacement including a 030 cpu...they are imposible to find.) do a search...
