Po kolejnej serii wersji testowych Phaeron uszczęśliwił nas kolejną wersją emulatora Altirra, który pozwala nam powrócić do gier i aplikacji z ośmiobitowego świata ATARI. Jak zwykle zmian uzbierało się sporo, dla osób śledzących wersje testowe - nic nowego;), dla użytkowników tylko "pełnych wersji" - morze zmian i poprawek.
