I would try either Aeros or Arix (when it's here) since you could use any old PC you have and have a NG experience since they'll be suing Linux drivers as their backbone.  If you have an old Apple PC around then you can try out MorphOS as I beleive they have a try out period before registering.  If you want to try out AmigaOS4.x then you can get a used Sam440 system for a good price nowadays since many users are upgrading to Sam460 & X1000 and good thing is if you choose to upgrade you will always find a buyer for your 440.

I don't recommend selling your classic gear yet until you feel satisfied with the NG experience. Personally I'm a hardware tinkerer guy and glad I kept my classic stuff now that i have more space in my man cave since it always costs you more to re-purchase stuff you sold in the past.

I'm NG all the way, me......

.. well, apart from the A500 with a PowerPC board (the KCS one :) ), the A600, the A1200/030, the three A1500s and the two A4000s with 200MHz and 350MHz PowerPCs respectively (the 350MHz is my work machine).

APART from that, I'm completely NG as well.

(In other words - don't sell the "classic" unless you have to. You'll regret it. All the NG systems are great, these days, but there are times when you just want to go back to the good old OS3)

+1 and sing it again brother:)

@ Fransexy

no point getting upset as that's par for the course over here unfortunately & I don't understand it either since 99% of us are here because of our classics and still enjoy our NG miggies.  Anyway I'm just happy that this stuff is on the appropriate thread at least :laugh1:
