Cammy that's an amazing response. I didn't expect a reply of that size!!

Lots of good info there though. Hopefully the Amiga arrives to me safely.

I think first thing is first.

1. I'll make sure the HDD is CF and if not I'll upgrade that first.
2. Ill grab an A604, don't think that will break the bank and the extra memory will be needed I'm sure.

Then I'll have to decide if I should update the Rom or an ACA630

Must admit the ACA630 looks very impressive and would be great to own one with an updated workbench anlthough maybe a little pricey for what I actually want the amiga for. I hadn't even seen this bit of hardware before and after seeing it running I am very tempted..

Just games really, but I also want to checkout octamed which I used to use years ago when making music.

SCSI card reader sounds like a really good idea. I remember using a serial cable years ago and it being painfully slow!!
