Upgrade an A1200
« on: January 27, 2003, 08:31:30 PM »
At the moment I don't have an actual Amiga (emulation only) and will not have the cash to get an A1 for ages, so I've found a friend who will give away an original A1200 (not expanded).

What would be the best things to upgrade?  I don't want to spend much on it (no towering!)  I'd like to get a more modern OS like 3.5 or even 3.9 onto it - how can I plug a CD-ROM drive into it?  And would I need to upgrade memory?

RTG would also be nice - is there a way to get a cheap card in an A1200?

If I'm thinking over the top, please say - I just want to get an Amiga - any Amiga - for as cheap as possible.  Thanks :-)

Thanks for the advice, but looking around at prices, I think I would probably be better holding out with the undexpanded A1200 untill I can afford the A1.  If I can stand the wait, that is :-)
