Hi Doug, I stll have an Amiga1200 although I have not used it for some time. I used an 24x CD-rom on it and it worked fine. I did have more ram and more speed. Just to let you know that you can use a CD rim drive with more than 8x on your A1200, but you may need the necessary ram and speed for it. Hope this helps a bit.
