A standard 1200 is pretty compatible, if there are problems you can use
something to kick up with a 1.3 ROM image for better compatibility.
Accelerators can cause more problems but you can still find some ways to
kick 1.3, going the whole hog if you get an '060 you can run UAE!
You will gain much more with a 1200/AGA than you will lose with a few pesky
games not working IMO.
