Introduction:
Cases are made using Injection Molding manufacturing technique to produce top and bottom shells as well as trapdoors and parts. The process implies the use of 3 new molds. First one for the top shell, second mold for the bottom shell and last one for trapdoors and parts. No old or 20+ yo industrial parts have been used in this process.
General Specs:
These new cases are perfect replicas of Commodore design.
Some areas of the case have been enhanced for a smooth installation of nowadays expansions boards.
Main differences between original Commodore case and the New A1200 case:
- Plastic is 100% UV proof to avoid case to turn yellow over time
- Screw brass inserts in all 6 new screw towers for smooth operations. No more broken plastic clips.
- Bottom trapdoor offers better cooling with extra vents and 3x rear trapdoors are available: Plain door, VGA hole, DVI hole
- Supports for: Raspberry Pi©, MiST© FPGA, Keyrah© V2 keyboard adapter, RapidRoad© DoubleUSB and Lotharek© HxC Floppy emulator
- Multiple colors available
General:
Made of Anti-UV plastic to prevent the case to turn yellow after several years of use.
Brass Inserts:
The cases do not possess plastic clips that may break after too much openings and closings. To ensure the cases last even after multiple open/close operations, 6x new screw bosses equipped with brass inserts have been added.
