Super cool case for a great system, indeed

Good coverage in the article.


Looks very nice, especially the support for new boards (MiST and HXC)... And €79 is not unreasonable, I find.

I'd like one of those covers for the rear expansion. My A1200 case is fine, just the cover is missing (as with 90% of all A1200s).

I've been trying to get an A1200, but the prices online are just insane.

I wonder what the price for a full kit of new stuff would cost?
this new shell, their future new keyboard, the Amiga Reloaded board (and a compatible disc drive).
Probably just as high, but at least everything would be brand new.

[francouai]

correct, they cost too much...
A1200 cost 150euros minimum in France.
I sold one of my A1200 for 99euros and it has been bought in 1 hour on Ebay. 

fyi, I just bought a CPC 6128 PLUS for 100euros (boxed).

My a1200 is fairly white at the moment, as is my a600. If someone were to make a 6128+ case and keycaps I'd be getting 2 of those for sure.

My A1200 & 6128+ were kept in the same place at my Dad's place for the last 10 years, the CPC looks fine but the A1200 is the colour of Bart Simpson... 

Don't have the available cash at the moment for new case however.
