Comodore officialy say that 60% of current A500 software works on the A1200.
Impressive? I don't think so!

Compo (large german company that develop and sell ST/TT/Falcon software and
hardware addons) have had a thorough test of a large base of existing ST 
software to see if it worked on the Falcon 030, and they found that 95% (no 
kiddin', ninty-five%) do run!
This is even better than what Atari self hoped for, and it is MUCH better
than what the TT can show up with. I have a TT and have little problems to 
get the software I need.
