"Either a better Commodore monitor (1080, 1084, etc.) or a FlickerFixer / VGA card. I've got a decent stack of Amiga games"

I've got a Microway FlickerFixer (NTSC version) that I could be persuaded to part with. I got it for my A2000 and it works fine. PM me if you're interested.

You can fit the CD-Rom in the 5 1/4 bay below the two floppies and hook it up to the intrnal scsi card. You may need a longer SCSI cable but it should work ok. I think you can have upto six scsi devices. Also you need to be carefull about termination.

That's looking pretty neat. You've got a similar set up to me, minus an accelarator, flicker fixer and RTG card.

I've got a Picasso II in mine it works very well and they crop up on AmiBay/eBay quite often.

If you want an accelarator GVP-M have one for the A2000, you can get them new at SoftHut.com.
