Dear Friends:

Even though my a1200 had many problems, it is still run good.
I just decided, instead of buying a new amiga (like a 4k or 3k)
I will save my money to expand my amiga 1200.
For example, I would like to get a:
-new accelerator
-external cd drive
and anything good I can find.
If I save my money, I can afford this expansion.
I will expand my amiga 1200 !!!

It all depends on what you want to do with the miggy. My A1200 has 3.1 ROMs, a hard disk, 4MB FastRAM card and a Squirrel SCSI with a CD-ROM drive. Nothing spectacular, but it's a nice little system.

If you want something a bit more powerful, I'd consider a Blizzard IV or similar '030 card with a bunch of FastRAM and the SCSI kit for the CD-ROM drive. This would make a pretty good WHDLoad system.

If you're even more hardcore than that and want to go down the 'everything' route, you can still do that with an A1200. You could look at getting an Apollo or Blizzard '060 card and possibly even a tower conversion kit with a Zorro busboard for installing RTG and other fancy expansions.

As ever, it always comes down to "What do you want to do with the miggy?" :)
