Most/least fave amiga model?

[NovaCoder]

From a aesthetic point-of-view the original 1000 looked great (very Mac like) and the 3000 tried to follow that design.  The 2000/4000 just looked like bland boxes, not very interesting.   Obviously the 500/1200 were a nice design for the budget.

Technically, the original 1000 and 500 were the best.....it was all downhill from there

My personal favorite Amiga's: A1200, CD32, A3000

[desantii]

Favorite: A2000 as it was my first Amiga, actually my new favorite is the 4000T
 
Least Favorite: A500+, pointess
 
On a side note, I do like the A600 which not many people like... should have been cheaper, but oh well

The cheap wannabe Amiga, the Atari ST.

Oooh, tough question....

I have only seen pics of the 3000, but I'd say visually it's my fave....

My favorites... Amiga 500, and 600..  A500, my first Amiga, had it nicely expanded. A600, my late father's first ever computer, '030, 32MB RAM.... He loved that machine, he liked the small size...

I don't think 4000's are that bad.... but then again, I do own 2 of them

Least favorite... well, the 4000 could have looked better....

My 1200T runs beautifully, easy to upgrade/mantain.... but doesn't much look like an Amiga...:lol:

Least = CD32. Ugly console and not a real computer.

Most = I like almost all models of amiga, but preferred are A600 (small and cute), A500 Plus (the firts i got) and A1200 (versatile, expandable, powerful).

My least favorite is the A2000, it's big and ugly and only has Z2.

My favorites is A3000 and A4000, pretty small cases and good computers.

Having had the chance to own all of the models (except the 600) at one time or the other, I have to say that they all had good points and bad points. Each of them I enjoyed when they worked.

Well I only own an A1200 and Cd32, but i think the best Amiga has to be the A1000, its the one that started it all, it the only Amiga that can truly say it was years ahead of the competition, by the time newer models came out the market was catching up. The only problem with it really was it only had 256k not 512k at launch a shame. Even the first Amiga got screwed by Commodore.

Then the worst, close between A4000 and A600 not for what they are, they good computers but they should of been so much more, A4000 we know was basically a early prototype board that just went into production to save costs, and the A600 should of lunched at the same price if not cheaper than the A500, the whole point I believe of the A600 was to make a low cost, small low spec amiga, but some odd reason Commodore screwed that up and made it cost more than the A500! Otherwise I think it might of been more successful than the A500.

I hate to side with Doomy but I am going to go A2000. Lots of room and solid as a tank.
Least favorite, A500. Dull.

Hey now, I like the Falcon.

[tlgrooms]

Still love my 3000T the best even if it's not currently working....
1000 would be next in line.
Least would be CDTV I guess.

A1000 was a great first release, but I can't stand to use it today.
My favorite is the A3000.

I liked all Amigas for the OS and it's capabilites, not for the hardware cases. I thought almost every Commodore case made was junk. Terrible layout, hard to access the inards and poor designs. The only exceptions where they came close to getting it right was with the 3000T and 4000T. Why did Commodore find it so hard to make an easily expandable and well ventilated case?

Just on looks alone, I though the 4000 desktop toaster looked the best.

Maybe we could add a poll to it ?

[Tension]

Least Favourite:  A500

Anybody that disagrees is a fool.

I think you have to seriously consider the target market and the planned expansions, not those expansions which were later dreamed up by third parties.

Now there is also the reality that this was at a time when engineering, marketing, software and finance departments within computer companies were starting to distance themselves from each other. Remember that early on the companies were smaller and the hardware and software guys were close if not the same people. Heck looking at most of the products out on the market today, I think you could make the case that these groups do not even talk to each other anymore. (well, there is facebook and myspace)

As long as were bashing expansion, let's be fair, It seems to me that serious expansion of many of the Dell, Compaq, Mac and IBM systems presented the same or even greater challenges than the Commodore products. I'd stack the expandability and modularity of an A2000 up against almost any computer of the past or today.

In one sense you could say that the design of the A500 was stifling, but on the other hand you could expand it according to the amount of room you had on the left side of your desk.
