Graphics card, CPU upgrade, USB - go with those and you're halfway home.

Well you have three options from what I can tell. 1. Try to track down an Algor or Highway card. It's out of production so it might not be easy. 2. Get a Zorro card with an A1200 clock port on it and get a Subway card. 3. Get a Mediator PCI board and the Spider USB card.

I don't think you need to worry about USB unless there was a specific USB periphal you want to use.


Ah well there's the rub: there's so much you can connect via USB that IMO it's the peripheral connector to have.  Network, keyboard, mouse, scanner, external storage (both disk and firmware)...the uses are endless.  Go USB! :-)
