As someone who uses ClassicWB across all of my "classic" Amigas, I'd certainly be happy to buy a legal floppy/CD combination of an updated OS which contains all of the latest files and patches in one easy to install package.  With the use of something like "AmiUpdate", it could use the Internet to keep it updated with the latest files or allow the user to easily add additional programs.

@ AmigaDave,

Yeah, that would be nice.  I like AmiKit on UAE, but I think it would strain most "real" classic Amiga models.  I don't have any above 68040 (although I plan on getting the 608060 expansion for my FPGA Arcade).

It would be a dream to just insert a floppy disk which detects your CD/DVD drive, allows you to format a large hard drive and then prompt you with various questions like:

Do you have a Mediator (loads drivers)
What RTG card are you using (loads drivers)
etc, etc, etc

We can dream.  :D
