Hello everyone, 
it is once again my pleasure to announce that a new version of 
OpenEmulator was released. 
The highlight in OpenEmulator 1.0.2 is 1977 Apple II support. A short 
feature list: 
* Emulates the 1977 Apple II 
* Joystick/mouse support with programmable axis and button mapping, 
sensitivity, reversal, and joystick auto detection 
* Supports PAL/NTSC video generation and crystal frequency (14.31818 
MHz vs 14.25 MHz) 
* Cycle-accurate video emulation 
* Support for several character sets 
* Emulates the floating bus 
* Support of the Apple II cassette interface 
* Support for Apple II revision 0 and 1 or later. 
* Added the AppleColor Composite Monitor 
Some tips: 
* Besides the Controls menu and toolbar, you can also press CTRL 
+BACKSPACE for reset and CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE for restart 
* To start BASIC, type E000G <ENTER> 
* You can get cassette recordings of software here:

   (to load a cassette, follow the instructions with the recording, or 
try LOAD <ENTER> from the BASIC > prompt) 
* You can load Applesoft from cassette :-). You just won't be able to 
use HIRES. 
* Try entering this in the monitor: 
  1000:AD 51 C0 EA AD 50 C0 4C 00 10 
1000G 
* As always, you can tinker with the XML emulation description 
Your comments are more than welcome! 
Merry christmas, 
and a great 2012, 
with the best wishes,
