Hi

I'm looking to build up a decently spec'd classic Amiga to use as my main home computer.  Its been ages since I used a 'real' Amiga - for the past 10 years I've run Amithlon and UAE.

Interested in:
- OS 3.1
- Web browsing
- Email
- Word processor/spreadsheet
- MP3
- DVD

What parts are readily available and would made a good set up?


A classic Amiga will not be able to perform all the items you listed at an acceptable speed unless you get a PPC + graphics card.  When you add the cost of all that up, you're prob better off buying a SAM.

I love using my desktop 1200 at home for a retro fix but it's never going to replace my PC (unfortunately).
 
Life begins at 100 MIPS!


Nice Ports on AmiNet!
