-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...

One week without the forum was a very long period... And once again we didn't want this kind of bug occurs. And once again it happens :-(
The domain name of the forum expired on 19th April, 2005. We renewed it on 18th April. Sorry to have not made earlier: the renewal page has been changed and we didn't have find the time to fill it up completely in the last days. Unfortunately, even if we renewed the domain name and we received the order paiement in time, atari-forum.com appeared as an expired name after 20th April. Strange thing happened: we still could log on and see our order about atari-forum.com (so we were still the owners of the name), but there was always that same message about the expiration... Grrrr...
So we contacted last week-end the providers and after two days of messages (as a lack of luck, the main boss of the company was travelling in Birmingham between 04/21 through 04/25), they finally managed to solve the troubles. Thanks to them, but this kind of bug gave another proof we are cursed. Who made that doll voodoo...?

Finally the forum is back. Also this is the first news we post there after a long time. If you wonder what we made while this time, here are some rumours:
. Silver Surfer and ST Graveyard are working on a new part of the site. This is long awaited part, can't say more ;-)
. Marcer is still searching and collecting rare stuffs. He received a lot of image-disks and many CD-Rom in the next weeks. He is in the process to verify them all.
. Dungeon.Master and myself had a pasti-day last week. Also we recently bought many rare stuffs. We met and we archived many rare games. Most of them have been added to the database of the site (download should follow shortly).
. Mug UK has a new job and very happy about it. We all hope he'll still work with us ;-)

That's all for today. So expect for more stuffs in the next weeks. Thanks for reading and don't forget to visit our lovely forum, of course!
