Crowd funding: Another A1200 case
At Indiegogo, Jarno Smit has started a crowd funding project called "AMIGA CASE". It is a case which according to the description is "based on classic Amiga 1200" and "is meant as a replacement for the old (yellowed/damaged) Amiga 1200 case": AMIGA CASE looks like a real A1200 but is slightly larger which provides more space for any expensions or a different motherboard.
The most important features of Smit's case which is officially licenced by Amiga Inc.:
- Original Amiga logo on the case
- Designed for classic Amiga 1200 hardware
- Designed for the Thin Mini-ITX form factor, Raspberry PI 1B+/2/3 and Keyrah V2 keyboard adapter
- Designed for usage with internal and external keyboards. Can function as a keyboard stand
- Two 3,5 inch bays to build in devices of your choice. Covers for the 3,5 inch expansion bays with pre cut USB connection holes
- Recessed air vents for Amiga 1200 accelerators and the Thin Mini-ITX motherboard
- Adjustable placement in height of the Amiga 1200 motherboard
- Removable and replaceable backplates
- High quality plastics with UV stabilizer (no more yellowing)
- High quality screw points with blind brass inserts
A single case will cost between 60 and 70 Euro. In order to to put this project into practice, during the next two months in total preorders of 90.000 Euro have to be received.
Hint of the editorial staff: Since 2015, "AMIGA CASE" is a registered trademark of Jarno Smit in Benelux.
