@ Major_Tom_Coming_Home

welcome back to Amiga land :)

The possibilities of expanding the 1200 is endless as many fellow amigans have already noted! Personally I'd first start off with an accelerator board (min 030@50 if you can find one), CF HD solution, USB or PCMCIA-CF solution & that's a good start...OH and VERY IMP. to replace your capacitors asap! actually open up the case and have a look for leaky caps which could destroy MB traces or worse:rtfm:

@ spudje

excellent point about caps!

I've used Charles at http://maccaps.com/MacCaps/Repair_Service.html recently and happy with the service and fair pricing.
