Amiga 4000 for me, definitely. It's the only way to have the compatibility of AGA and the expandability of the big box Amigas. The 2000 and 3000 were both very good, but the 3000 used ZIP RAMS and had limited space. The 2000 was great but only Zorro II. The 4000 has its faults but overall it's the most versatile, and it still surprises me some of the things it can do when it's pumped up enough.

Still have a soft spot for the A1200 though for a quick WHDLoad game, and the A600 is just cute. :)

Definitely the A3000 was made at or close to the peak of Commodore's interest in the Amiga, at least compared to the 4000. There's loads of bits and pieces about the 4000 that were never finished (bugs in Buster, 2MB Chip RAM limit despite 8MB support on the motherboard). Interestingly there's also support for the 68020 on A4000 motherboards, which shows just how little idea Commodore had about what to do with the machine.

Doesn't change the fact it rocks though. :)
