Hiya, even more questions from the soon-to-be owner of an Amiga...

1.  HD controllers.  A person I trust rather automatically (Peter da Silva)
has recommended that I get a 2090A, 1.3 roms, etc.  Anybody have a 
*really* good reason why I shouldn't?  (Like: the only hd's that work
with it cost $1k/1Mb storage, or something equally silly. :-)

2.  A person over at Microware claims that an Australian company has
released OS-9 for the Amiga.  Anybody know anything about this?

Look, more questions:

3.  If I get a video digitizer, do I need lots of RAM and/or HD to
make it usefull?  I have a choice between money for a digitizer/frame
grabber, and money for a hard drive. :-)
