I am building an A1200 tower with an 060 accelerator and I intend to use a PCMCIA ethernet board with it. I have been advised that when lots of power-sucking addons have been put into an A1200, and when you've got the convenience of having this all in a tower case, that it is wise to connect power, from the case's power supply to the Amiga 1200's motherboard floppy power connector (that normally supplies power to the A1200's floppy drive). Here power is feeding into the system where normally it is being used to power another device _from_ the A1200 itself. This would be in addition to the normal A1200's power input, of course.
I see the logic here, with that much of a power pull on the A1200. But am a little nervous about it - are folks using this config for good runs of time without issue? Just wanted some user experiences here.
Thanks!
