A4000 / 060 + PPC Vs. SAMiga (440). Which one and why?

[Amithony]

This is bound to get some interesting responses. I'm torn between souping up my non-commodore a4000 tower and selling the lot for a 440. I love the hardware, but if OS4.1 is everything I hope it will be, i have a feeling that it may be time to move with the times.

I'm leaning that way at the moment. I guess i could keep both to satisfy my nostalgia. How compatible is os 4.1 with older software I wonder.

[Amithony]

What if it were ancient 1.3 software

I thought that given the hardware was so different that compatibility with the ancients would go out the window.

Sell it and get a A1200 for classic compaiblity also

Bought one of those, yet to set it up though. This SAMiga stuff has me excited.

Absolutely! Finding the time to tinker with it has been a challenge of late though.
