A1200 tower case pix
« on: February 19, 2004, 06:05:33 AM »
Going to put up a proper page w/ 20 or so pix, but for now there are a few pix of the towered Amiga 1200 I just put together here:

Looks really nice.

p.s. that SCSI shain doesn't seem properly terminated from those pictures. The end of the cable doesn't have termination and the connector before it leads out to external SCSI connector...which may have a terminator on it (we can't tell) but still...the end should not be loose.

Hey,
that last photo is cool!

But the rest are too dark....
(do you have your monitor brightness turned right up?)

;)

What are the specs and, what is the name of that case?

I have a SCSI Zip drive hanging off that 2nd to end connector - but maybe you're right - maybe the physical end of that cable should be the connector going out the back jack.  Hmm.

By the way, they did a good job with the backside of that tower to match the A1200 connectors exactly. There is a company called Schaeffer Apparatebau KG (in the US: Front Panel Express) who developed a very handy program called Front Panel Designer, which you can use to design your own panel, mail the data to them and for a small fee they will professionally mill all the holes :-)

Have to agree with a previous poster: the pictures are way to dark, hard to recognise anything.

Slightly off-topic: I'm about to move my A1200PPC into a new case (just out of boredom, it's not that my Mikronik tower stopped working or something).

If you know about A1200 case jobs (no matter if it's a tower, a cd-player or a desktop case) documented on the net, could you please post the URL here?

I remember somebody putting his 1200 into a Sun Sparcstation case, but I can't find the URL anymore...

The pics are intended to be dark and show off the light.  I got my desired effect with them.  There will be more pix on the page of tower build pix I will put together.

Heh...happily not in the bedroom.  I am lucky enough to have a whole room dedicated to my machines!
