At the moment, mine is a Compaq Presario S5000CL (picked up at a garage sale for 5 bucks) running winUAE. But in times past, it was a 1000 - bought new in 86 or so, then a 2000 bought new when CBM was closing them out for $500.

Ah, well, anyone visiting my house would know right away that my A1200T is my 'baby'... Best monitor, accel., RAM, scanner, etc. out of all my miggies. My 1200T is on now, I was checking out Dougal's BBS. :hammer: Though my WarpEngine 4000 gets a lot of love too.... :) (That was always the 'family' computer....)

Most used is my A3000, I got it in 1996 and used it day in and out for more than a decade. My first Amiga, an A1200 bought in 1994, was installed with Linux in 1997 and has been running that ever since. The other Amiga systems I've got have never been used for as long and as much as these two systems.

I have no idea what your talking about, so here is a doggy with a small pancake on his head.

MorphOS is a MAC done a little better

Hi,

Mine would be an A4000, one of the best, true Amiga's. MorphOS couldn't even compare.

My goodness how desperate we have become by claiming a MAC is an Amiga.

Really it's UAE for me, my A4000 is too flaky right now.

I wish UAE, Aros and the two major PPC platforms were listed as options.  I'd like to see those results, but I suppose that's how it goes with any poll.

But a PPC system running AOS4 is an Amiga?

And what if an AROS user bought a CUSA Amiga and ran AROS on it? Would that be an Amiga?

Yes your system couldn't compare because it would be MUCH slower.
And even a Mac running AOS4 (if that was possible) wouldn't be an Amiga, but that might be a good thing (performance wise).

Again, Amiga's just a name. When it comes down to performance, I'll put your 4000 up against my Mac and watch your system perform like the Stone Age prodigy it is.

This was a close call.

I'd say my A4000 in an Elbox tower (Warp Engine 68040, Mediator, Radeon 256MB, SB128, IndivisionAGA, FastATA 4000, Deneb) just pips my Minimig v1.1 (4MB & ARM) in usage at the moment.

I've still got to get around to fitting my Catweasel PCI and Emplant II cards into the A4000 before I can close the case.
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.
