Unfortunately for me, I liked the design (hard slip cover, etc) even more than the features/specs.. So I preferred my 770... And I even like OS2006.. Responsive, stable, fast booting. ;-) I tried a few of the others (HE's, Mer (or was it deblet?), etc) and they were OK, but for full time use, OS2006 is my go to OS... Problem with the 770 and 2006 is that it was so good, I didn't feel the need to upgrade. ;-) Then again, I have more Amiga computers than PCs in my house, so the cutting edge isn't exactly where I live.. ;-) desiv
