[comp.sys.amiga] I want to buy an Amiga and need advice!

Hello people,
	I have finally come to my senses :-) and decided to lose my 386 box
in favor of an Amiga 2000 or 2500 system.  I have the following concerns
for which I would like advice:

	1.  I don't want to take a beating on the difference between what
	I can sell the 386 for and what I can buy the system for.  I don't
	want to buy a system which is less powerful than the one I have
	(there are those of you who would say a 500 would outpower a 386
	but I think you know what I mean :-)

	2.  Can I run a getty-like thing to allow CLI access remotely
	in conjunction with a UUCP-like thing for file xfers?  I know
	that both exist, can they happen on the same machine at the
	same time?

	3.  Is the 2090A still available?  I would like to take the hard
	drive out of the 386 and use it on the Amiga.  If not the 2090,
	what alternatives are there?

	4.  Anything else I should watch out for?

Response via e-mail would be preferred, if there is sufficient interest I will
post a summary.

						thanks in advance,
