What planet are you on?
You claim to like Amigas but seem more interested in slagging it of because of it's limitations.
Yet you want to keep them limited by not towerising and using the likes of the Mediator.
(A great little bit of kit btw)

Frankenstien like?
Letting your imagination run away with you.
Its a box with components in, same as any other computer.
You don't appear to have a problem with other big box machines.
I have large files, programs, mp3's etc that I need to transport to other computers from time to time.
Suggest an alternative better than a USB flash pen.
USB works well for me.
Define poorly.

I have my Miggy attached to a 19 inch TFT
Have two hds,floppy drive, a cd rewriter and dvd rewriter.
A Blizzard 1260 and FastATA ide interface.
Sound card, network card, USB card, graphics and TV card.
Have a mutiple flash card reader.
Would have a hell of a job runnning this lot without a tower and mediator.
Hacky?
Works well enough for me.
 :-D

To be honest, I don't think the 1200 looked that good in it's original casing.
Bit of a backward step in that respect when compared to the A500.
The A600 because it had no numeric keypad, looked even worse than the 1200.

CDs are not as quick and a pen fits easier in a pocket.
Large files over a network isn't brilliant either or always possible.
The A4000 does look the business.
The A1200 looks a bit toy like.

Using a Mirage myself.
Quite like the green front.
Suppose it's not that much different from any other PC box though.
What happened to beauty is only skin deep?
I though it was what is inside that counts.

@Rkauer

There is FryingPan for DVD burning on classic Amigas.
Think it works for Morphos, AROS and OS4.0 as well.

Hey, less of that accusational,imflamatory talk.
That can get people into trouble.
I didn't force my Miggy to do anything.
It wanted to do it.
