Where has all your fast RAM gone?? LOL Should have at least 28MB free?

My experiment is a success, my Amiga 1200 have not crashed or gave me a hard time ever since the disappearance of tinymeter. If what you say is true and by that everything is accessable from the menu anyways then I am happy to say I do not need tinymeter and my Amiga 1200 performance top notch. My Apollo 1260 is optimized, ScummVM running throttle is running at least at a 25 fps, meaning it is smooth as ever.

My AmiAmp runs SUPER fast, the OS boots super fast, I can transfer files and listen to mp3 SMOOTH as ever. I can even listen to mp3 and play scummVM and play throttle with no performance degradation. I even watch ren and stimpy FAST at a 25 fps with smooth sound and no lose in sound quality...that is it boys! I have a 100% full functioning entertainment center. Now I am going to devote my time converting my movies and tv show to run into Amiga classic.

Boys and girls, what I get now is an Amiga classic that gives you the same experience as OS 4.x in modern hardware in all it's media entertainment plus more (meaning more software available for classic over OS 4.x) with one exception however and that is a browser. If Amiga classic have the same browser ability as OS 4.x one could say OS 4.x is not even needed :)

That is just my opinion in the matter. Thank you all for everything, thank you all for helping me and being supportive, thank you NovaCoder for ScummVM and all the other cool ports you are doing for the community!! Time to enjoy my Amiga :)

Personally, I'd recommend ClassicWB

It's probably the best one for real hardware.


Amigasys worked well for me, had 28MB free. Just noticed in his screen shot he had just over half of that showing?

But yes classic is probably the best bet :-)

Not even close ;)
Enjoy what you have though, it's a cool Classic system.
