I doubt that standalone will be much larger than vampire card, so it should fit the A1200 case easily. Not sure how would you connect the original keyboard and old IO connectors.
Isn't the point of standalone to have its own case?


You would use a Keyrah

If the standalone fit in an A1200 case and supported PCMCIA (and why not cardbus too) as well as internal and external floppy drives then it would be hard to resist.


I don't think I'd hold my breath on PCMCIA.

Seems like everything that could be done with it could be done just as well (or perhaps even better) with a built in contemporary like SDCARD or ethernet or externally via USB.  

The A1200/600 PCMCIA ports are not really internal anyway.. they stick out almost the length of the card :)
