Dave, How about a local User Group? Perhaps someone in a local group has a 1200 to demonstrate. I have fairly low confidence in local dealers. (Yes there are some great ones out there, but there are just so few of them!) In the meantime, since 1987, magazines have propelled me into purchases on the Amiga. AW and AA have covered several items be it hardware or software, which have been my primary source of info. Learn it on your own and you won't have to depend on the unknowledgeable sales people. Therefore, 99% of my Amiga purchases have been through mailorder. Mailorder sales people have been more informative than local sales people. Also, I have saved a tremendous amount of $$$$$ by buying though mailorder. Check out a local User Group would be your best bet…IMHO. You will be happy with the Amiga once you start buying the expensive IBM/MAC software. (you can always get a bridgeboard if you do find IBM software you prefer.) Amiga makes it possible.!!!!!!
