Need advice on best way to blow $300 for A1200 upgrades?

Another option (than the unobtanium Invivision AGA) for HDMI output is

used with this SCART cable...

I'd also get these:

I'd also look for a 4GB Disk On Module for my primary (for example):

but this would be my 2nd choice:

if you want networking, this would be my first choice: DFE-670TXD

- it goes 100mb
- it does not have a dongle to break like most other PCMCIA ethernet cards.
- its cheap...

Thanks, there is much to consider here but...why a real time clock?

I'd forget the RTC....
 
Clockport is way more useful used in conjunction with a Subway or Rapid Road USB controller. I have a Subway, never used the Rapid Road but it is available

You might end up with an accelerator with RTC.

You could get the time from the internet.
