![]() Here's a pic of my A1200 before i opened it to install my HDD... notice the seam along the front where the top/bottom halves of the case meet... it looks a bit warped/not straight. Also the two front corners look slightly warped as the edges/lips of the case don't quite fit well together (more noticeable on the front-left corner). As i said, it's no big issue but it's one of those little niggling things that catches my attention now and then ![]() Last edited by PowerPie5000; 19 March 2010 at 02:30. |

![]() If you look left from the middle where you said you can see it carrys on, I think it's just the light. Theres usually a slight gap between the joins usually anyway isnt there? Maybe you could ask 8bitbubsy to take a clearer picture for you to decide ![]() |

PowerPie5000, this is normal with every (at least many!) Amiga 1200.. They were built that way, a bit rubbish. The Amiga 500 for instance closes together just perfect.

I think powerpie was suggesting that his is a noticable difference, im guessing that his other amiga 1200 wasnt like that?

You should keep an eye out maybe for a minty replacement case if its really bothering you which I think it is by the sound of it! They pop up from time to time, you broke the warranty seal so I doubt amigakit will replace the top part now

Give fol a pm maybe he might be able to sort it out for you, no harm in asking ;-)
Worse case scenario, you could tower it? Last edited by Kitty; 19 March 2010 at 12:06. |

Just an idea heh, I think theres an amiga 1200 casing on ebay at the moment, if I recall it had only minor yellowing which could be fixed easy with retrobrite and I think it was pretty cheap too ;-)
Have you got a closer pic of your amiga from the same angle. Last edited by Kitty; 19 March 2010 at 13:05. |

It was a molding issue nearly all suffer from it. The lugs on the left that keep the keyboard in place are to long, this results in the keyboard sitting on top of the lugs and hence raising it.
Yes we do sell replacement top and bottoms, but the top wont help. A bottom might, but would need to be altered slightly to make keyboard sit correctly. |
