- I figured an A1200 was a step up from the A2000, because it featured
- a 68020 and the AGA chipset. But, then I catch wind that the computer has
- no battery backed up clock! I don't use my Amiga to play games, but to dev-
- elop software. File creation/modification dates are very important especially
- to programs like "Make" that go berserk if this info is incorrect. In some
- of the other groups there is a thread entitled "Don't let the Amiga Die".
- Commodore should take heed, because if this omission is in anyway exemplary
- of their design strategy - the Amiga will certainly perish.
