Hi, I have just been offered a 1200 for a very attractive price. The only draw back is that it is French and I'm in England. I have been told it is possible to "localise" the Amiga, by changing the software and possibly moving some of the keycaps. Is this true and would any one be able to help in pointing out any pit-falls? My main worry is that the manual would be in French, which I can not read, and so I would not be able to make the software changes. Would CBM be willing to sell me an English version of the manuals? Many thanks Martin
