A4000, A1200, or A2000?

So, I am at a crossroads of a sort.

I have a bit of Miggy money and am trying to decide the best way to spend it.  I am currently in possession of an A2000 rev 4.3 that is a trooper, but is stock 68000 with 3 megs of ram.  Researching all the things I can do to get it up to decent par (030 accelerator, indivision, at the very least), with that money I could for sure get an A1200.  The idea is much like Runequester- I just want to use the funk out of it.  I don't think I'd get rid of the big brown battleship, as she just keeps ticking, but I still really want an AGA machine like my first purchased computer (a 1200).  The problem is I always coveted the 4000s.  I know this topic has probably been flogged a bit, but I'd love to hear the chorus opinion on which AGA machine is preferable to expansion ( in a non-frankenstein way) and all around longevity.  Or should I eschew AGA altogether and make this 2000 a beast?

I'm so torn!

Well, it's good to see that I am hardly the first or the only one who struggles with this then!  I think I am definitely leaning towards the big box 4000 or kitting out the 2000.  Now, the RTG thing confuses me - I can get RTG in the 2000 and 4000, but only in the 1200 if I tower it?  And how does that change if I use the Indivision?  I use a 23" LCD monitor for my main comp, but for the 2000 I'm using a 1084s.  Isn't an RTG just a graphics card, and if so, wouldn't the indivision bypass it anyway?

Thanks for all the advice!  I have decided to pursue an A4000D.

Don't forget to look out for battery leakage!  This is a very common problem in the 4000Ds, and can screw things up good.

Ja, a good reminder.
