I've never had an Amiga, and would love to have one. I figured I might as well go for the highest-end original one.
Preferably it would have a full compliment of RAM, a Cyberstorm PPC card, and a Catweasel, but "you can't always get what you want".
I am considering splurging and buying a full-tower one with a 68k accelerator, full RAM, and a video toaster (not that the video toaster is a selling point for me, but I will try it and resell if not useful) - this flew up in price and is at $500 now, so I am a bit hesitant. If it goes up much more it simply won't be a sound investment.. as it is, it probably isn't.
Anyone got one? I primarily want to use it for 68k Amiga games, but modern computing and coding might be of interest. Can a PPC Amiga do 68k games properly? I know the CPU would be emulated, but sound/graphics? Is there a 68k card for them? I'd prefer a kitted-out 4000 though.
Thanks.
