If it was an A4000 I might be interested. If it was an A4000T I would be considering a loan.

But an ugly A1200 hack? Nah.

Wow, you're using the same monitor as I am on my DELL Workstation.
Is it a 17 or 19inch P991?

I thought that link had a cool A1200 setup, removable drives etc. and no ppc Akira . Besides if you're gonna expand your miggy with stacks of hardware it's wise to towerize it. I don't care if it's a dull looking tower (like mine) if it works ok. You like a working but a bit rusty car better than a freshly painted one with engine and shit falling apart right?

I agree, my little brother has a Blizzard 1230-IV, a HD and CD-Rom drive in his A1200 and it's just ok with the original desktop case. On second thought it's kinda cool to have the original case and not a modified tower...there's that special feeling to it.
