WB3.1 is it worth it?

I use an accellerated A1500 with Wb2.1, OplalVision and VLabY/C

Would the 3.1 upgrade make any serious difference to my machine?
Would the number of colours available on WB change?
Would I then be able to run a decent Web Browser?

My Amiga is great for the sort of work the local Video Studio requires,
but I am getting lots of requests to do DTP layouts for local papers
and requests to set up Web Pages for local business.

So, in all seriousness, is it worth upgrading or should I finally
turn it all in for a PC.

I love my Amiga and would prefer to somehow upgrade it to take on all
this new work - maybe 3.1 + Hi-density floppies to write PC disks, or
perhaps a bridgeboard.

I have to make my work compatible with the businesses that want my work.
A newspaper, who had seen some of my printed work in the form of a
colour catalogue done for a client, wanted me to take over their layout
system, yet as soon as he knew the catalogue was done on an Amiga he
went all cold on the idea, convinced that any work I did here on my
machine would not be transferable to his Windows based system.

For 5 years now my Amiga has made money, now it is starting to lose me
money, so something must change.

All suggestions welcome.

Thanks
Harry
