An A1200 mobo that would enable you to use Zorro and PCI slots while maintaining the mobo in the original desktop case.

And how do you think the  Zorro and PCI cards will fit, if you use the the original desktop case?

The slots would either be vertically or horizontally (on the edge) mounted - but then - where in the original desktop case of an A1200 do you think is space enough to fit in the cards (how many, BTW?)?


Outside the case, of course! At the end of a cable. That's why the mobo needs redesign. Or perhaps some Bodega Bay type expansion.
