- For me it isn't the keyboard garage, but the external keyboard. I hate
- machines that have everything built into the keyboard, so that you can't
- put the machine on your lap (or if you can, you will have 5 or 6 cables
- running back to the desk instead of one).
-
- The only thing that I don't like about my 1000 is that I can't put a fat
- agnus in it (without buying a rejuvinator or something). I'm surprised
- no one sells a hack to allow the 1000 to run in PAL mode (or if they do,
- I haven't heard about it).
-
- I just don't like the cpu and disk drive (plus HD on the 600 and 1200)
- being stuck in the keyboard.
