If you are sending it to Acill, have him check the IDE header. The machine I rescued had the header almost completely corroded away by cap leakage; needed to replace it.

And yes, the CF to IDE adapter is the best thing ever. You are limited to 4GB (plenty) with OS 3.0.

Still deciding on what upgrades to do.  Definitely going to stick with the standard 020 and RAM card I got with it for now.  Will probably go with Kickstart 3.1 for the heck of it.  I think I'd prefer an externally accessible CF card so I can easily move back and forth between the 1200 and WinUAE, but an internal DOM is tempting too.

I have the internal IDE-CF acting as a hard drive and also a PCMCIA-CF for getting stuff off PC. Total cost is like $20.
