Which prefabbed setup is best?

Amikit, Amisys, AIAB, other or just simply setting one up for yourself?

Nice to know, froma personal point of view cos I have all of 'em, and never know which to bleedin well use, and also froma general point of view, i.e. which is the most popular.

Another very vague poll, it depends on what you want to do in emulation.

For the best games compatiblility = CWB
For other things = AmiKit

for a simple and quick setup Classic WB all the way, If you are testing and developeing then a custom 3.1 or 3.5 is the way to go

for emu I did like AIAB as it shows to a degree what a power amiga can do, but CW is better for running a day to day scenario

Ok, I'm confused now...

1) I've "soft" deleted the thread called Can a monitor help please?.
2) I've added a ClassicWB option for you in this thread and then came across this post:

With a A1200 Blizz030/50MHz/32MB, I use a self created combination of ClassicWB + OS3.9 + some patches (FBlit, MCP, MagicCopper, MagicTV, AssignWedge and many others).
Probably the only way to store thousands of modules, WHDLoad games & scene demos, normal games and scene demos and many many more proggies from AmiNet or the internet itself
I use a 60GB HD, with about 10 SFS partitions.

Self created!

How will you ever learn about AmigaOS if you take someone else's config and plonk it in your setup. There's no fun in that.

I agree

It can be fun getting your hands dirty and creating your own custom WB. Although for people who are beginners when it comes to AmigaOS and/or simply don't have the time to muck around with the OS (or are just lazy ) then something like ClassicWB is very good indeed.

ClassicWB is perfect for all purpose, and it's quite alike my tastes anyway in Workbench enviroement.
but with personal customizations is even better.
also i keep my self created WB as a treasure

I didnt even notice the `SelfCreated` option. I skimmed it and thought it was a 'which premade setup is greatest' thing. doh!
