Aaron Timbrell, that lovely cuddly creature from
VirtualAcorn [3] emailed a quicky to us a day or so back (
sorry folks, the bluebottle has been really busy, but things should be back now!).
VirtualAcorn are delighted to announce that version 1.4 of VirtualA5000 will be released at the RISC OS [4] SouthWest show on the 22nd of February 2003.
For a tenner you get piles of improvements, more software (it now includes FasterPC - the PC Emulator with a copy of FreeDOS, Asylum and Oddball
games, the GameSuite games programming package (all kindly supplied by AcornArcade), Ample (music programming language), SoundCon, PDVivaldi, ReMidi midi file player (with the latest instrument patches) as well as updated versions of Account2, Merlin and other programs)
The improvements on the
windows side are quite big as well, with many bug fixes (unfortunately, not for Windows ;-p) and improvements in printing, screen handling and other areas.
All that for a tenner! Better value I'm yet to see.
