Photos of my A1200 tower build

I have posted a writeup, with photos, about the construction of my '060 Amiga 1200  tower.  Have a look:

Hum,
Nice,
It`s a bit weird if you haven`t already towered up an Amiga...
What took you so long?
(of course, discounting those who were incarcerated , undergoing brain surgery, or `traveling`)

Anyway good article, (but have you more photos?) :-)

blobrana,

Well...as I said in the post, I _did_ tower an A1200 back in '00, but maybe that, too, is a matter of having taken too long as well.  After I sold my A1200 in 1994 (went to a 486-66 running NeXTSTEP for Intel), I did not seriously use an Amiga until the A1200 tower, six years later.  Amiga was kinda out of my thoughts.  

I admit that the A1200 tower I've just built is not my primary machine, or anything near it.  I am a Mac OS X guy now.  But...I'm glad to have it.  I use the 1200 and my A2000 about the same now.  Love classic games on that A2000.

a nice site you have there, fellow Mac user!
And some nice things written about the Amiga, and your experiences using one of the best desktop computers ever produced.
Religion is for people who believe in hell.
Spirituality is for people who have been there.
