I was looking through some old Amiga mags the other day when I came across a front page featuring the C= CD1200. This was going to be the official Commodore CD upgrade for thr 1200. I believe it connected to the trapdoor slot, was of the same colour, and looked basically like a sawn of CD32. Actually it was very pretty.

Are there any in existance or were the prototypes discared? How close did it come to production I wonder?


I've seen a couple of these on Ebay.de in recent months.  They were very cheap too.

I don't understand why they chose to use the trapdoor slot (meaning you can't add more memory or use a turbocard) when theres a perfectly good PCMCIA slot 4 inches to the left.
