Good luck. Sounds like a fun project. The CD32 is friggin cool. With the SX-1 and a CF card HD, 8 megs ram, a PC keyboard. Nice... The CD32 is like the only new old stock item showing up these days on ebay so I revisited this system.
Have all my games and whdload stuff on there. Cool to connect it to a modern HDTV TV. My HDTV has somekind of filter in there that makes the S-video output really really nice.
Used to have the video module too for playing Hong Kong Chop Socky flicks from mainland china as in Shenzen you could walk into a store with wall to wall VCD's for like 25 cents each.
Ok so I'm stoppoing at the A1200 and CD32, got em cheap. My collection is complete.
