Commodore Amiga 1200 + Blizzard 1230 IV, USA/Německo, 1992/1995. Amiga 1200 používá procesor Motorola 68EC020 kolem 14 MHz, 2 MB Chip RAM a čipset AGA. Oproti starším OCS a ECS Amigám přináší AGA 24bitovou barevnou paletu, až 256 barev v běžných indexovaných režimech a rozšířený HAM8. Vestavěná 3,5palcová DD mechanika ukládá 880 KB a uvnitř je 2,5palcové IDE rozhraní pro pevný disk. PCMCIA Type II dovoluje připojit další periferie. Akcelerátor Phase 5 Blizzard 1230 IV z roku 1995 se zasouvá do spodního 150pinového trapdoor konektoru a používá Motorolu 68030 na 50 MHz. Má jeden 72pinový SIMM slot pro Fast RAM až 128 MB, patici pro volitelný Motorola 68882 na 50 MHz a podporuje MapROM. Volitelný SCSI kit přidává Fast SCSI II a druhý SIMM slot.
English / Anglicky:
Commodore Amiga 1200 + Blizzard 1230 IV, USA/Germany, 1992/1995. The Amiga 1200 uses a Motorola 68EC020 at about 14 MHz, 2 MB Chip RAM and the AGA chipset. Compared with earlier OCS and ECS Amigas, AGA introduces a 24 bit colour palette, up to 256 colours in normal indexed modes and the extended HAM8 mode. The built in 3.5 inch DD floppy stores 880 KB and an internal 2.5 inch IDE interface supports a hard disk. PCMCIA Type II provides additional expansion. Phase 5's Blizzard 1230 IV accelerator from 1995 plugs into the 150 pin trapdoor connector and uses a Motorola 68030 at 50 MHz. It has one 72 pin SIMM socket for up to 128 MB Fast RAM, a socket for an optional 50 MHz Motorola 68882 and MapROM support. An optional SCSI kit adds Fast SCSI II and a second SIMM socket.
