       All I can say is wow.  I guess I will have to see more 1200's in action.    
   They sound like good machines that people are always torn on wiether to keep   
   in the keyboard and computer in one design, or break out from that and start   
   expanding.   
       
       Reminds me of my Atari 1040 STE.  :)  (Expanded to 4 meg.. blah blah   
   blah...)   
       
       Yeh, sounds like the Amiga is either the parallel for the 1040STE or the   
   Falcon.  Not sure which yet.
