: What are you gonna do when you blow a CIA on that A1200
: motherboard? They're surface mounted along with almost
: everything else on the A1200's motherboard. You aren't
: going to go to the local dealer or ANYWHERE else to get
: that machine repaired. I can pop ANY chip out of my
: A2000 and replace it myself.


I never have blown a CIA chip in ANY machine I have ever had.  you must 
have a problem.

AGA games and AGA speed.  Picasso is NOT RTG and can not emulate AGA.
Final cost is a consideration.  While you have spent possibly $3000 on 
your 2000, I have spent under $1000 for mine. Hey, I even HAD a 2000.  
The cost of a 4000 is less than what you have for a setup.  Kep on 
spending money anyway you like to.  It's your money.
BTW, the PC slots in the Amiga are not worth mentioning.--
