What's your fav out of all Amiga models?

[Brian]

So just a general question, What is your personal favorite out of all the Amiga models? - Also, do you preferre the more "classic" like AOS versions or the newer AOS versions?

For me, the A1000 is my fav, being the first computer I ever used. AOS 1.3 was my main OS on it, it was expanded in 2 MB RAM with a side ram expansion back in it's prime.

Since AGA is the shit I'd say it's a race between only 3 contenders realy: A1200, A4000 and CD32. The CD32 loses before we start as it requier extremly expencive hardware to even get it to where it's a usable Amiga computer instead of just a game machine and still you're miles away from making it look like a computer... also it reminds me too much of C='s failure. My fav Amiga is then a close race between the A1200 and A4000. A1200 low cost and easy to move around, A4000 for better expansion options... I think I'll say the A4000.

I've been through all of them and my favorite was the A3000T.

My A1000.  It had a great keyboard, a neat keyboard garage under the CPU, and had a quiet power supply.  I had it with a 1080 color monitor, external 3.5" and external 5.25" drives, an Access Associates (Allegra) 2 MB RAM Side Expansion module, some kind clock/macro device that fit between the keyboard and keyboard port.  I used it with DeluxePaint, DeluxeMusic, ProWrite, ProPage, PageStream, Analyze! and Softwood File.  Also had Digiview complete with Panasonic video camera and light stand.  Wrote many songs with DeluxeMusic.  Published a couple newsletters with both ProPage and PageStream.  Had a Supra 2400 Baud modem and used NComm to BBS (also a Genie subscriber).  All on Workbench 1.3.

I eventually moved to an A2000.  It was more practical because it had a hard drive.  But that power supply was a bit noisy.  I had an AMax board, A2630 accelerator and A2320 flicker fixer (used with a Sony 1303 multisync).  Also moved to Workbench 2.05.  This set up was better for desktop publishing.

I have acquired various other Amiga's and used AmigaDOS 3.1 thu 3.9.  I also used tried some nextgen OS's on spare PC's like Amithlon and AROS, as well as WinUAE.  But that first A1000/WB1.3 is still my favorite.

I have an A2000, but my favorite would be either an A1000 or A3000.  I'm hoping to pick up an A1000 and maybe an A3000 eventually but to be honest, I am not sure what I'd do with them.
 
I also prefer the classic operating systems (which, to me, is 2.0 and below).

My first A1000 back in 86 holds a special meaning to me and having owned all models at one point in time except the A3000 it's the A1200 that is my favourite, be it in the desktop model or a towered up version, I honestly wouldn't go back to any other models and will stick with the A1200...

My first amiga was the 500, but I do like the 1200.
Ofcourse I loved the 4000, but they 1200 was/is just great.

A1000 for me as well. Just love the looks of it with a 1080 sitting atop and a 1010 by its side  

Re: OS's, kind of up in the air about 1.3 and 3.1. Depends on what I want to do on an Amiga. On a floppy only based system, I *prefer* 1.3 because I like the looks of it better (nostalgic for sure) and appreciate its simplicity, but 3.1 on everything else I guess because of its productivity and practicality. With a special Kickstart disk, easy enough to turn your hard drive based OS3.1 system into a floppy only based OS1.3 system too though and that's one of the greatest things about using an Amiga - the flexibility.

I'm rapidly falling in love with the A3000 now that I've got one. The case is kind of cramped (at least compared to the A2000, monster that it is,) but it's built just as solidly, and the lower profile, better stock CPU, full 32-bit bus, and built-in SCSI and flicker-fixer put it at the top of my list.

Amiga 1200 :-D

I've now owned a 500, 2000, 3000, and a 4000. I'd have to say the 3000 is my fave. I only got the 4000 recently and only played with it a couple of hours, but it felt surprisingly cheap or backwards in direction to me, not having a flicker fixer, and the case is pretty ugly. I like how sleek the 3000 is, and at the time it came out it was as pretty decent machine.

I pass. no poll and most importantly no pancakes.

greets,

PS: A1200

A1200 - fast (then), relatively cheap and amazingly expandable - Commodore really should have released an A1200-Tower officially to help keep people's desks tidy.

[SamuraiCrow]

A1200 was my first and favorite machine of the Amigas.

As far as the next-gen systems go, they really don't do what the Amiga does in the way that the Amiga does it.  I've posted a bounty suggestion on AROS-Exec about a shader program to emulate AGA graphics features on modern shader-equipped graphics board but so far there have been no comments, much less takers.

WinUAE on XP - nothing can touch it.

The A3000D without a doubt!
