Congratulations on getting the PC1512 fully working! And as for the Hercules/CGA discussion, the CGA may be much more compatible, especially in terms of gaming, but Hercules was always superb for text editing and graphics. The only reason I would go for EGA Mono rather than Hercules would be the ability to redefine the character set in the text mode.
I never owned an Amstrad PC back in the day but I knew people who did and ended up fixing their machines when they had issues and recall most common problem was the battery dropping out of the motherboard as it was installed upside down! 😆
