New here, just back into the Amiga
Hi, i've been reading this forum for a few months now and it's rekindled my Amiga interest again so i thought i'd join up and say hi.
I've recently bought an a1200 with 2mb pcmcia ram and 4 gig internal hard drive and am having fun getting back into it although it's a far cry from the 060 based a1200 i had a few years back. I'm looking at putting Classicwb on it over the weekend if i get the time. So here i am

Welcome to EAB
 Classic Workbench is a great choice indeed  For your setup I suggest the Lite or better still the 68k pack (CWB 68k uses a lot less Ram, its geared at A500/A600 with 3.xx Rom however works well on an A1200 with low Ram.) Enjoy! Steve. |

welcome aboard Amigafanboi you finally found home
won`t be long till you start wanting to upgrade that A1200  think about selling that 16bit 2mb pcmcia ram and buy a 8meg 32bit ram card or wait till jens scolfield releases his new ram/030 cards. hopefully before xmas |

Thanks Steve, i've recently joined Amibay and have to avoid it as the fingers twitch towards the back pocket which is not good.
I know the sram cardisn't really suited to the a1200 and more the a600. I'll keep my eye out for a cheap ram expansion. |
