Depending on the PSU it might deliver a bit more power than a 1200 one so might mean you have a more stable system if you install expansions.

I hear about heavy A500 PSUs and light A1200 ones but my A500 plus had a lightweight PSU and the A1200 one weighed a load more. I sold the A1200 one on eBay and just dug out a photo. It was labelled A600 and had a 3 amp 5v line. This was in a 1993 Desktop Dynamite pack.
