I know you like deliberate mistakes to be pointed out to check we are listening so: You say at 2:34 the A1200 had an 040 running at 25mhz. That was the A4000. The A1200 had an 020 at 14mhz.
The A1200 was/is my favourite of the wedge Amigas, and although more powerful than an A500/A600, it was just sadly a little too far behind the tech curve when it was released. Maybe a year or so earlier it would have sold better as being more ahead of the competition at that point, allowing for more software to take whatever advantage of the chips it could. But as good as the AGA chipset was, even then it really needed more too it (better Paula (16bit 8 channels), faster full 32Bit blitter, and in my mind chip ram should have been upgradeable to 4MB in the A1200 (with 8MB Chipram being more for the big box Amiga variants). I still love my beloved A1200 though still running my system to this day albeit heavily upgraded. Really enjoying this series
In fact, this 1200 shown was fitted with a ACA-1231/42 MHz incl. CPU 68030 (with MMU), 64 MB RAM and RTC but of course its not standard.

Aha, I was wondering how long it would take.
If only it had a 040 for the same price 😂😂😂
You mock me good sir! 😁 Omg that doll is creey please never again. I don't want to be scared to sleep.
Well click on the like button and it will disappear.... into your wardrobe!
@@commodorecave5581 Done. An idea for you. I hope one day you can look at replacements and do a similar poll. Whether minimig, Sam or ReAmiga.
