Classic VS NG

[NovaCoder]

Well after modding the hell out of my A1200, I'm thinking it might be time to sell up and purchase an NG.

Getting all the hardware/software mods to work together was and still is enjoyable, yet frustrating task.

Well you've certainty taken the Classic a lot further than I've ever had the energy to do

The 030 A1200 can of course run 97% of Classic games, an 060 will get you to 99% and PPC will only get you that last 1%....does that give a good perspective on things  

If you really want to have RTG then a big boxer is a better bet than going the A1200 to Tower + Mediator (IMHO).

At this point I wouldn't recommend to anybody that they upgrade a Classic to PPC (OS4 Classic want-to-be-users included!), if you really want to try an NG 'Amiga' then maybe have a look at MorphOS or AROS.

MorphOS looks very polished but it just doesn't interest me that much.   I could buy a used Mac and get it up and running cheaply but I don't think I'd actually use it much.   Same story with OS4 on NG but the entry fee is much higher.  Upgrading a Classic machine to run OS4 appears to be a very frustrating experience from what I've read.

I think I'll just stick with my Classic AGA machine for a while.  I'll have to replace it one day though, prob with either A3000/A500/FPGA/WinUAE
