Interesting concept -- that concept being: how to uglify an Amiga 1200.

It's actually the best Amiga laptop conversion I've seen to date. That PAWS thing is just fugly! This is, granted a big mother..., but it's more akin a "laptop" of the early days. (Although certainly not the early 90s)

Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion.  But I think it looks ridiculous.  A stock A1200 hooked up to a vanilla LCD monitor looks much better.

I think this is kinda cool. Ugly? Probably, but at least he did a great job with the mods. Doesn't look so much like a Frankenstein creation  ;-)

Hmm, too bad you still have to lug around the power supply. Would be nice if integrated into the monitor or some kind of "pack" somehow.

I've never seen the point in 'portables' that you have to plug into a power supply  :idea:

Oh well, at least he did a neat job of it :-D
