In case you get a standard A1200, you still need to upgrade the computer with some fast ram, and an accelerator of some sort. The A1200 comes with 0 fast ram and a 020.
The better choice would be to get an A4000, which can take up to 16 MB fast ram and comes with at least a 68030 for the standard machine. Furthermore the A4000 is ready for expansions cards such as graphics, sounds, ethernet right away, the A1200 in most cases needs to be towerised, and expanded with slots in order to be upgraded with graphics and sound (ethernet is not a problem on A1200 though).
