- File selection dialog is now scrollable with mouse wheel or cursor keys, too.
- Hatari now works on 64-bit host CPUs, too.
- Floppy disk images can now be set writable/write-protected in the GUI.

-Alive 10 is here.
Only three month after the release of issue 9, the alive team strikes back. This issue is about half the size of the last one, we hope you will enjoy it nonetheless. Alive 10 features music by GwEm, Crazy Q / DHS and Marcer / Atari Legend / Elite. The stunning title picture and the menu gfx were done by our star artist C-Rem/MJJ-Prod. Thanks again to the scene for all the cool contributions.

Like last time Machines higher than ST you will have to SWITCH TO ST-LOW RESOLUTION before starting the shell, otherwise it will not start at all. I am sorry for this mess but its better than a crashing shell I think.

So far for the bad news, what's the good ones?

Alive comes bundled with a few releases again:

Crazy Q's - Beatbox Mania vol 2 (including a nice intro by DHS)
Outline Bootsector Sourcecodes by GGN / P01 and Cyclone
Alive Kolour Tagger Sourcecode by GGN / KÜA Software Productions
FCOPY DIM 2 ST Image Converter by GGN / KÜA Software Productions

And for historical reasons Dark Angels MusicMon 1.0 Intro

Well, nothing news on the ST side at the moment, but we received a great picture from Pepe. He is the chief editor of the french magazine PC Team. Guess what? Here is the bed where sleep the journalists invited by Atari (ex Infogrames). This is the perfect place to avoid nightmares and to have beautiful dreams about Motorola chipsets, noisy floppy drives and lovely carebears! Please note that even the lignt on the ceiling spreads an Atari logo over the room.

Thank to Pepe for the pictures and the Atari goodies he gave us (candies, pin's and fingerband).

The journalists probably don't know how much lucky they are...
