3.9 makes sense if in my opinion you are going to be using Workbench a lot and especially if you end up with a more expanded system (graphics card, 040+, RAM). An 030 with 8 megs is kind of on the threshold, but you certainly can run 3.9 on it fine if you desire.

Thanks for the input, ajk. I might eventually get a 32MB SIMM if my usage of the system justifies it. Or I just go the Vampire route. I think for the time being I'll stick to 3.1 and see how far I can take it.
Going back to late 1992/early 1993, from looking at UK magazine ads, the A600/A1200 with HDDs came with 20MB to 170MB sizes. Is anyone aware of what was the most common size of HDDs sold with A1200s (of the ones sold with HDDs)? 40MB? 80MB? Currently I want to get a feel for what you could do with the limited HDD space back then.
