Best programs etc to get on the Internet
« on: April 02, 2010, 11:35:39 AM »
My Amiga 1200 rack project is getting close to being finished and my PCMCIA network card from Chile from a member off here.
 
My current spec is Amiga 1200 with 64 megabytes of additional ram, 68030 50mhz and fpu at 50mhz, 2 gigabyte compact flash (hoping to have a replacement 4 gig one soon), with Amigamaniac's fantastic SVHS adapter with an LCD monitor that almost acts like a flicker fixer (eg no flicker on the higher res displays).
 
Now I just need to know the best browser to use (hopefully one that is free) and the best tcp/ip software to use that will be usuable on my setup.
 
Will I also be able to get access to shares on the network?
 
How would AmigaOS 3.9 work on this system, and how much is it to purchase?

It is not for sale anymore since its distributor (not developpers, which are still there, somewhere) IOSpirit has ceased to exist.

Well I've downloaded the demo of Ibrowse, got amitcp and the network card drivers.
 
All installed under winuae, just need to take the CF card out and put it into my real Amiga and see if I am online or not.
 
Hopefully be able to test this out later on tonight.  Happy Easter to all as well!
