We can most certainly say without fear of contradiction that there really
are some serious incompatibility problems between 1.2 MB floppy drives and
360K flopy drives and disks.

A similar problem never did exist with the 720 and 1.44 MB drives.  They
are compatible; however, a perfect match would be more compatible, IMHO.
