I will expand my amiga

[nicholas]

Personally Id never buy a bppc again and especially an '040 based one. Id prefer an '060 anyday. For classic use the ppc side is very limited plus restricted by the 680x0 cpu anyway, and for an NG option (os4.x,mos) its too slow. Sure the OS may run ok, but what use is an OS when the software runs badly? The only good thing about the bppc when I had it was the expansion connector with which I addeda Grex. Never again would I buy such a system though.

Ditto. I don't miss my 040/BPPC at all.

An 060 card is a much better investment IMO.

My advice is still the same:  get a subway.  Now I have USB on my Amiga, I couldn't live without it.

I would also add an Indivision AGA and more RAM for your 1230 to Darrins recommendation too.

Perhaps a FastATA Mk3 from Elbox but they are a little pricey, although they are very good.

I have the FastATA from Elbox and the damn thing is a bastard to fit and keep in the ROM sockets, even with cable ties.  It is certainly fast and worth the money (and I also have a FastATA in my A4000), but unless you need blistering speed, I would honestly tell people to stick to a cheap 4-way buffered IDE device.

I will agree that the IndivisionAGA is another "must have".  

I'm waiting for the Indivision AGA Mk2 to be released myself. Hopefully it will be this year.

@rednova I think you've got a pretty extensive list of options now.  
And you didn't start WW3, it was clear Franko was being ambushed with the intent of getting him banned, it was mentioned in a "secret" group that PMs were circulating to try to get him banned.  So not your fault at all. I'm surprised the Moderator didn't see through the attempt but I guess they don't see PMs.... Unless, of course they were in on it...... (o:
Intergrity.  LOL what a cracker.

Oh those morons are targeting Franko as well now are they?

Welcome to the club Frank!
