Advice on an Amiga System For Newbie
« on: October 24, 2002, 11:23:08 PM »
Hello All.
I have just signed up to Amiga.org and havn`t kept upto date with the Amiga scene for about 12-18 months.

I have recently been reading up through the web and my older Amiga publications (Amiga Active\Format).
I want to buy an Amiga system again as I sold mine off a while ago when moving. And i want some advice on what to buy.

I currently have a fairly tidy spec PC but nothing special and what I am after is a system that can offer the following :-

* Web Browsing (Sharing the NTL Broadband connection I have on my PC).
* General Usage - I run my own business so general stock management and invoices would be handy, I need to edit word\excel files so I would buy any file compatible amiga application.
* File Sharing\Networking with my PC (I have a Network card in my PC).
* Playing some older games (WHD LOAD?)
* Share my PC monitor (not multisync) - Can I play games on this?
* Graphics work - i use Photoshop at present.

The system needs to be fast and fairly up to date.

I just want a basic run down of what I will require hardware wise and software wise and where to get it.

Many Thanks
