I had an A500 first which was such a great platform but really once the A1200 came along and was transferred to a tower with an accelerator, extra ram, bigger harddrive, 24-bit graphics etc it really became my favorite platform. Just a pity that many A500 games would not work on it. I am now on an Intel iMac and still getting used to it, I'm sure it will become favorite at some point, but against the Amiga it has a lot to match up to.
