Dear Gwion,
reread Flashlab's post. let me tell you something: browsing the net
woth Amiga is not really a fun thing.
Put Opera on your iBook and you have the best for teh web that is
available.
Even the most advanced Browser for Amigaish computers (i.e. Sputnik
for MorphOS) is lieghtyears behind Opera or Firefox. Even the Sputnik
author says Opera is best and he probably will nevr reach taht level.
At home I browse the net with my Peg, but only becasue I am lazy to
fire up a 2nd computer (and for energy saving issues). But in the end
I ofthe end up in firing up my PC because my MOS-setup cannot handle
it.
To get the tast of Amiga you should go step by step. Get a A1200 with
some 030 card and use it.
btw.: the emulation is also a real good way to use amiga. You have the
highest 68k compatbility and low cost. And if you're stuck on the
Amiga side, there's always the host OS which can help you.
The amiga is really a brilliant computer, but do not expect miracles.
You're young and eager, but let the old wise man (that's not me of
course, i am neither old nor wise ;-) ) tell you something: The more
you expect the more you'll get disappointed. Expect the lowest (and
start low) and you will have a positive experience.
