My list.

A1200  - Perfect form factor.
A1000  - Keyboard garage, slick no-nonsense design.
A3000  - Beautiful lines.
A600   - Almost portable.
A500   - The classic wedge.
...
A4000  - Like mingle says, it looks like a cheap PC.
A2000  - Big and bulky, like a tank.
CD32   - Looks cheap
Walker - Umm yeah...

I didn't put the towers in there because I've never really liked them.  I'd put them where the ... is.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

The A1000 was so ahead of it's time with an 'Apple like' level of design inovation....amazing.

The other Amiga's that stand out for me are the 1200, CDTV and CD32.

Life begins at 100 MIPS!


Nice Ports on AmiNet!

The thing is, people don't want a box cluttering up their desktop, which is strange considering that their solution is to stand a quite large tower on the desk instead.

The 1000 was a nice design, but how would it look with an LCD monitor stood on it.

The most attractive amiga was the commodore a4000T.
next a1200
3. The walker. so shoot me.

Ugliest by a mile was the a3000T.

Why the A4000T?  All it is is just standard PC tower case with proper cut outs for the ports at the back.  hell it even has a turbo button at the front.... that does what?Dime a dozen looks..

Wrong.
My "solution is to stand a quite large tower" BESIDE or BELOW "the desk instead".
All the best,
