Amiga 1200
The Amiga 1200, or A1200 (code-named 'Channel Z'), was Commodore International's third-generation Amiga computer, aimed at the home computer market. It was launched on October 21, 1992, at a base price of £399 in the United Kingdom and $599 in the United States.
==History==
Like its predecessor, the Amiga 500, the A1200 is an all-in-one design incorporating the CPU, keyboard, and disk drives (including the option of an internal 2.5" hard disk drive) in one physical unit. The A1200 has a similar hardware architecture to Commodore's Amiga CD32 game console, and is technically close to the Atari Falcon, which was intended as the A1200's competitor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Commodore Amiga 1200 )〕
Initially, only 30,000 A1200s were available at the UK launch.〔Amiga Format "New Amiga 1200" (Issue 41, December 1992)〕 During the first year of its life the system reportedly sold well, but Commodore ran into cash flow problems and filed for bankruptcy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chronological History of Commodore Computer )〕 Worldwide sales figures for the A1200 are unknown, but 95,000 systems were sold in Germany before Commodore's bankruptcy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Commodore-Amiga Sales Figures )〕
After Commodore’s demise in 1994, the A1200 almost disappeared from the market but was later re-launched by Escom in 1995. The new Escom A1200 was priced at £399, and it came bundled with two games, seven applications and Amiga OS 3.1.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Amiga Magic bundle )〕 It was initially criticized for being priced 150 pounds higher than the Commodore variant had sold for two years prior. It also came with a modified PC floppy disk drive that was incompatible with some Amiga software. The A1200 was finally discontinued in 1996 as the parent company folded.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Amiga III Technologies )〕
