well you are kinda in luck

We are in the middle of designing some really nice cases made for the A4000. Been real buzy but I will try and post some pictures tonight. We already have an extensive variety of A1200 cases. Well 4 styles in a selection of colors for 22 in all but they do represent the most varied collection of A1200 cases yet made.
The A4000 towers besides offering a very well designed case. No PC case hackem job here. some really inovative design features. These case will offer a ATX to A4000 power adapter with the ability to turn off your A4000 from software. The case is designed smart with the A4000 on the left side of the case so your cards are not hanging upside down and looking for an excuse to become dislodged. The mediator and A4000 tower case of course have the A4000 mounted on the right side on the case. You must specify what type you want when ordering. Again these case will be offered in a wide range of colors and styles NO BORING UGLY BEIGE BOXES here. Did I mention you have the ability to have the backplate completely customized with personal engaving and labled port cutouts.  All for a mere 210 USD
with the current dollar to the pound conversion this is bargain for cases of such quality.

These are made for the straight A4000D and A4000T,The mediator variants and the eagle for now.
The grex desk top will fit into a Standard A4000 case the only one that is a mystery to me is the promethious but if I get enough requests or somebody sends me a prometheous for me to fit into a tower case. Then I will offer them out.

@x56h34

Thats kinda like saying a Porche cost more than a Yugo.
Elbox standards on thier cases are not that high. Not to fault elbox they did a good job making a simple inexpensive case.
I can make more money selling an Elbox case than my own. Our cases cost more because they cost allot more to make.

If I took a cheap PC case cut a simple strip out the back for the Amiga ports then you could say I am offering the same thing.

These backplates are completely custom. These are SSI version cases not available retail can only be purchased by the container full (270 pieces). The ports on our cases are labled when I say labled I mean engraved and enamel filled. I could save ~$20 on the manufacturing costs alone by cutting this out. I am not into making cheap cases but high quality custom cases

Yes I move way too slowly. Updates on the web site will be on the other portions of the site not on the Amiga.
Projects for the agencies have come up and they take precedence because of bread and butter issues.

No problem with a Bvision and a 603e+
all you will need is my ATX to A1200 adapter that will allow you to control the ATX PSU from a straight A1200.
IE a non Mediator or GREX equiped A1200.

also you might want to have a (9 pin)VGA cutout on the back panel added. No charge for upto two additional cutouts.
we could lable it VGA out or BVision or whatever

The backpanel is straight the picture is distorted.
I crushed my olympus digital camera the week before those pictures. So I took them with my sony camcorder which in the widest view has a slight fisheye effect. I am allot of things but as everybody tells me I am no photographer.
In the future I will have somebody that knows what they are doing take the photos. in otherwords anybody but me.

Yes the A4000 cases are much larger than the A1200 cases.

The A1200 models  we currently sell are only 17 inches high but have plenty of room.
you could easily put both the scandoubler, a bvision, a mediator SX and our video switch in our current A1200 cases no problems.
I know people who have.

Since you have both the Bvision and a scan magic you might be interested in one of my Video switchers. It is a completely internal electronics switcher. with 350Mhz of bandwidth assures you no distortion or ringing of your video. All you do to switch video modes is a simple software command or a lighted push button on the case to switch the video. Yes I know it is not listed on the site. I have several thousand items that have to be put up there.
will post soon.

The only A1200 setup that needs a larger case is the ZIV users because the zorro slot standard requires almost 14 inches from back to front for the cards that will get blocked by the drive bays on our current A1200 cases.

The ZIV will be acomodated by our newer A4000/A3000 cases

The Video switch is $80 US

Yea it is called the RAKA we have been making it for dealers for about 8 years now.

The A1200 Cases includes one. it is also offered seperately for all model Amigas.

The keyboard adapter is an old design I made about ten years ago for myself becuase the existing A1200 keyboard MPU IMHO sucked big time and had a rollover problem ("the" comes out "hte" if typed real fast). That is why it clips on the VIA not fitted on the keyboard CPU or the Keyboard membrain slot.
It bypasses the slightly buggy A1200 keyboard MPU. I think later A1200 had this fixed not sure.

It offers 100% compatibility with 100% of all windows Keyboards. The other ones can't say that. You can press as many keys as you want as all are sent. The multimedia keys are sent as two button Amiga combos. example sleep key= Right Amiga + Q. lots of neat keyboard short cuts are built in. F11 & F12= copy and paste.

It also is available in US and European models. So us people in the USA have ALL the keys mapped correctly. US & European Windows keyboards are mapped slightly different.

The A1200 version also has a header so you can plug in the reset button from the case and use it to also reset your A1200.

I have an A4000 D that has no case (thanks to the carelessness of the previous owner) so am looking for one. Have the front faceplate but no top.

yes we will have tower cases for the desktop series.

please stand by
