Not sure if I would, if it expanded it to have Zorro III slots as well
then YES YES YES...

Yes a 40/60 socket is essential, as I allready have an A1200 Blizzard
1230III 50mhz,I soon realised that this is no way near fast enough.
Also it would be best just to leave a socket for a 40/60 free, so the
user can just plug it in when he/she can afford it rather than charge
extremly high prices.

Why not change your mind and build an A1200 Zorro III slot expander or
even better do both.
