Indivisions don't require "surgery". Pop them in and connect to almost any modern display device. Easy peasy. ;)

I'd still have to pull out the floppy drive to route the cable, right?


Depends on how you route the cable. Some people just stick it straight out the back. Others remove the RF modulator and stick it there. IMHO on an A1200 this is the best solution. Even better if you can find one of those HDMI output connectors (attached picture, sorry, don't have time to grab a high res image).

Ymmv, I don't really consider moving the floppy drive to be "surgery". :lol:

You don't have to  remove the RF modulator.

Of course you don't.  However some people already have SCSI, USB, or another device in the knock-out port location under the floppy drive.  And "In My Opinion" (TM), replacing the "functionally obsolete" RF output with something more modern provides the cleanest look.  But do what you want, LOL.  ;)
