I guess I picked the wrong time to get back in to the Amiga

AmigaForever or UAE would seem to be a more logical choice for those with retro fever.

I've tried, honestly, I have, and several times.  UAE crashes, Windows pops up without warning, the computer goes into standby when you're working, the internet connection turns itself off, double clicking quits working due to some weird timing issue (you can watch Clock go at 50x it's normal rate).

Plus, UAE can't run OS4 yet  And, OS4 was WELL worth the wait (and the insane expenses).

It could be much worse, at least the stuff is still available, even if the prices are high.
You really have to keep your lids peeled though.  There are still people who don't know any better giving away hardware.  Check craigslist.
