Yeah,
As I understand it, it's mostly bugfixes (like the cardresource.library that disables PCMCIA if you have more than 4M in the 68k RAM space.)

Most people run WB 3.1 fine with 3.0 ROMs.

Not saying you couldn't run into issues, but I haven't heard of any and didn't run into any when I was doing that..

Amiga 1000 w/ 4M FAST RAM, DUAL CF hard drives, external floppy.

Okay, I will have a look around on torrent sites if I upgrade since I could not find 3.9 on amigakit

Not sure why no one sells that still (commercially).
It comes up from time to time on e-bay or other sites..

I have to admit tho, I keep passing.
I'm curious, but not at the prices I've seen.
ClassicWB with 3.1 is really nice.

If 3.9 was still available for say $30, I'd snap one up in a heartbeat.
(Even tho the torrent is pretty easy to find)

Is that something 3.0 does or 3.1 ..)
That's a "feature" added to 3.1.  

Since there are so many ways to softkick (my ACA1230 softkicks to 3.1 and I never even notice it) nowadays, I'm not sure the need for a 3.1 ROM.
Now, a custom burned ROM might be nice...

When I get some time, I'll play with 3.5 and even 3.9...
Just that 3.1 with some addons (ClassicWB and I added a DOCK app) is just so darn nice..  ;-)
