I have a Power Tower from Power Computing. It's also caled the El Box or
something. It's a sturdy metal case that I'm sure can take a beating.
It's very easy to move your A1200 to it and there's a lot of room for
expansion. It also comes with a keyboard and KB adaptor. The KB adaptor
is a little flakey. After a cold boot, the CTRL key acts as an ALT key
(or something) until the Amiga key (or Windoze key in my case) is
pressed. It's a little annoying at first, but not that much of an issue.

BTW, to enable keyboard reboots (CTRL-RAmiga-LAmiga), there is some
soldering required, unless you have the Power Flyer (a 4 way buffered
IDE port also from Power Computing) which has the reset jumper on it.

If you are aren't afraid of taking apart your floppy drive and a little
soldering, take a look a my floppy drive LED project on Aminet:

Fusion 3.4 was announced then retracted. Version 3.1 is still the
latest.
