Was A1200 equipped with tank mouse?
I remember in 90s I bought brand new A600 pack, where Amiga had that boxy tank type mouse. Later I bought second handed A1200, which had more ergonomic mouse. But Ive also seen A1200s with tank mice. Was A1200 originally bundled with that old mouse as well?

I think A600 were bundled with the tank mouse in the begginning as long as stock lasted. I don't think A1200 were bundled with it.

I think they were just throwing in the box whatever they had. My first A1200 came with the A500 style tank mouse, my A600 came with the small rounded mouse (one button larger than the other), a friend's A1200 came with a rounded mouse of a different type.

Yep I agree with alenppc, seems C= just chucked in whatever they had to hand.
I thought A600 came with the rounded type with both buttons the same size (like http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/commodore-...-/221333843463) and A1200 came with the one button larger than the other type (like http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GENUINE-AM...-/390655325356) , but there's far too many variations on ebay for them ALL to have been people that have spare mice knocking around and swapped them. |

I believe my 1200 came with a rounded mouse. Personally, I preferred the pregnant mouse that I used with my 3000.
