Going back to 1080 monitor for my 1200

Don't get me wrong the Indivision AGA MK2cr for the A1200 from Individual Computers is an awesome scandoubler/ flicker fixer for our miggies especially as the original monitors are getting harder and harder to find and get parts for to repair BUT if you're lucky enough to have an original monitor ...ya know :-) I had a spare 1080 that was lying around for when the time comes that my original 1080 (that came with my Amiga 1000) needed replacement parts etc. and hadn't turned it on for a long time which is a no no to keep old electronics/ capacitors etc. happy so decided to put it back in use with my 1200.  The Indivision AGA MK2cr will go into my 1200T another day !




 
If I had a dime for every time I had to open the case to my 1200 :-)
alas one more time to take the Indi off Lisa!




why I LOVE REAL hardware ! In case you're wondering the add-ons are kipper2ks CD IDE extender, and solid E-Matrix 030@50 with FPU and 32MB fast ram
















1080 back up n running like it's 1986..flicker and scan lines in full glory!

ah it's beautiful to see demos the way they were made to be seen


the mancave (main west end anyhow) as it is the time of this post!
