Hi Guys,

I'm always interested to read what you find out there. Well it was my turn as to my surprise I saw something advertised just 5 miles from me.....

WOWEE! £50 for all that stuff??

Yep! I rang the seller, Nigel, and asked him to please put my name on it and told him that I wouldn't be making him any offers. I was surprised to see that he had fitted an IDE port beside the mouse port.......



and an IDE lead was coming out of the rear of the CDrom drive..........




I've just put it all together on top of the cooker (as you do :-D)...............




and after putting a few files into its HDD, this A1200 can now see a 1GB Compact Flash card on the PCMCIA slot and also the CDrom drive which has an OS3.9 CD inserted.............




That was great work Nigel 8-)

He knew that he could have got more for this A1200, but he just wanted it to go to a good home :-)
