I live in a Slack channel with some other programmers and one of them saw me talking about picking up a Pentium II for some retro gaming. Remarked "I have an old Amiga around here, might be a 1200..." I said "wow wish I could get one of those" - and he said "it's yours!"
I just got it home. It's got a 68030/68882 in the trap door! Looks pretty good, though dust and dirty. Here are the boards in an imgur gallery.

There's a full-height 320MB disk inside. Looks pretty original. The case is in pretty good condition and so is the keyboard, not even particularly yellow. Did the floppy originally have two screws fastening it from the outside of the case? Might be a later mod by someone.
Right now I have no video to see whether it is all working but apparently it was last time it was turned on, a few years ago. Seems to have not been recapped. There was a little mouse poo in there so who knows whether it will go or not? But I'm pretty excited. The best Amiga I ever had was an A2500 with 68020, so this is an upgrade. Really need an Indivision AGA ...
