Hey guys and gals.. I gotta question concerning an Amiga 1200.  I called a
shop in towne and they couldnt offer me much info.  I currently have a Amiga
500 and want/need to buy a new Amiga.  I cant afford the bigger amigas yet,
with school and all, but want an AGA machine.  

Anyway, does anyone know first:

1. How much memory does the A1200 come standard with, is it CHIP or FAST?
2. Can I easily upgrade the memory beyond the stock memory?
3. I currently have a Trumpcard 500At with a quantum 52 meg ide hd and 2 megs
of ram installed on the controller.  Is it easy to hook my hard drive to
the A1200 and can I use the simms in the controller in the A1200.

4. I am doing alot of programming now and I just got SAS/C 6.5 in the mail.
It takes a long time for things to compile on my A500.  Will the 68020 on the
A1200 speed things up alot, as far as compilation time?

5. How fast (MHz) is the A1200 with the 68020?
6. Can I get a Math coprocessor for the A1200?

Geeze, I hope someone out there can answer some simple questions!?!
