Adding any turbocard from Phase5 would make your day, i would suggest a blizzard 030/50 mhz and a little fast ram and you're done. P.S.: I currently use a Pegasos with Morphos on it ;).

Got a A4000/68060/50/140MB/OS3.5+ myself that I still use as my main machine on a daily basis. I am a big Ibrowse fan but unluckily it does not support Wordpress properly. Maybe in the next version. I also use a Mac with OS8.6 + 9 occasionally. And I do have an A1200 68030/50 + a A2000 lying around. Next new hardware will be something that is non-PC (again) and silent. Probably a minimac running Ubuntu. If you need software/hints for your A1200, let me know :cool: :cool:
