[comp.sys.amiga] Upgrading to an Amiga 500

I am thinking about upgrading to an Amiga 500 from a Commodore 128, and I
have a few questions that somebody out there can answer...

1) I am upgrading to the Amiga mostly for the graphics. What is a
   a good setup for doing a fair amount of graphics work? (ie. monitors that
   can handle 640x400&colors, minimum RAM needed to work comfortably with
   graphics, inexpensive video grabbers/digitizers)

2) Whats a good inexpensive hard drive? (~20Mb)

3) What are some of the hardware products that can be used on the 1000/2000
   and not on the 500 (ie. hardware incompatablity between these models)

4) Can I use an MPS-1000 printer with the 500? (I would assume I can because
   the printer has a parallel interface)

5) What are some good software packages for creating/developing/editing
   graphics on the Amiga?

Thats all for now. Please E-mail any responds to : seeley@dalcsug.uucp
