I happen to like the floppy drive click too and the automatic detection on insertion... I still have to use a lot of floppy disks in work, and it does my head in having to refresh the drive window every time because I forget the PC doesn't notice I've swapped the disk. I don't think Commodore can be faulted really for not including more stuff in the 1200 (030 and fast RAM for a start) because cost was such a huge thing. The A1200 was already a relatively expensive computer and an extra hundred pounds would've been enough to drive it totally out of the casual gaming market where the Megadrive and SNES were ruling.
