Few, actually. It runs in 6502 emulation most of the time, but the timing
really isn't a problem because it talks to the bus at the regular 1MHz and
also keeps IRQs at the regular 60Hz frequency. So a lot of software,
amazingly, works unmodified, and there's a lot of software now that is
being patched to run native.
And CMD does still make them.
