Re: Amiga 1200 - What to do with it?

I agree with most of what's been said. I would avoid the 040 if you can, unlike the 030 or 060, its happier being cooled and there are some bugs which make it less likely to work with some WHDLoad patched games.
With OS3.9 you'll get the Genesis TCP stack which I think works better than its competitors using the pcmcia as an ehternet link. With one of those and an ADSL modem (with ethernet link) you should be laughing internet wise.
If you really want to expand, you could do much worse than get a tower, a mediator board and a Voodoo3 which will give a very cool display. You then have to think about how you'll display ECS/AGA games, I use a TV card in the mediator, which I'm very happy with.
It sounds like you don't want to get into all that yet though, very wise :)
Probably the best accelerator you can get is a Blizzard 1230 mark IV, or the Blizzard 1260 and you'll have the option of attaching a scsi connector to it which you could use in conjunction with a scsi CD drive for example.
Anyway, all the very best with it - you ST filth! ;)

Multiview - Save as
Other formats than .iff
I know that because of TM and (c) is will not be possible to support .jpg and .gif, but what about .png?
.iff is nice, don't get me wrong, but it's soo big

You can hack an Amiga power plug onto a cheap PC PSU too.

I do hope so.... While I am interested in AmigaNG for now I have to make do with my A500 and A600-30 HD. It would be a shame if we don't see any development or updates at all.

No other colours, just go and
Paint it Black.
I think I will follow this advice - can you recommend a particular type and make of paint?

I tried painting it - but it now looks blotchy.

@Sister_Rita I don't know who told you a new version will be released soon, unless you've been reading that ridiculous 'ibrowse when' thread on AW... as for speed, it depends on your system, on a classic use ibrowse's internal decoders, on an A1 use the external datatypes. of course with aweb using the 'internal' decoders means using external datatypes and using 'external' means using the plugins that come with it... so in ibrowse internal means 'decoders that are part of the package' external means 'use external datatypes' in aweb internal means 'use external datatypes' external means 'decoders that are part of the package' isn't aweb fun ?

I agree, I also prefer IBrowse because it is very fast, even on my old Amiga. The programmers have done a very good job. I heard a new version will be soon released. I have tested AWeb, but I don't like it so much. Pictures take a very long time until they are loaded.
It's Aweb for me. I just can't get on with Ibrowse. I stuck with Ibrowse ever since I gave up on Mosaic. If anything, I find picture loading on Aweb slightly quicker.... We just had IE7 rolled out at work and this still struggles to compete with the ease of use of my trusty Aweb. Still, everyone has their own perspective.
