Studio 4 freebie link not working.

I may re-upload the freebie...with no disrespect to >>> Announcer.

I actually think I like Puppy Studio 3.3-rt better than 4. A few apps were updated in 4, but 3.3 plays 'rockin in the free world' on startup.

You can re-upload it if you want. But 3.3's pretty similar.

[cthisbear]

Only cos you said so.

Y'know, I thought it would create more of a splash when I released that. But basically the only people who said anything were you, RSH, ciento, and some jerk who used it on another forum to say "See! This is why Studio 13.37 sucks!" without ever trying Studio 13.37.

[ciento]

Great update! Getting a Studio and a pup that are both
up to date, is golden!
Is the snailmail business address the same as last year?
Cheers

[Announcer]

Actually, I moved last year!

You've got my email though.

[sunsnoel]

Coming hot on the heels of the write-up in "Recording" magazine, a new version of Studio 13.37 with the following changes:

• Updated to Ardour 3.3, Firefox 22, Pburn 4.0.3, Qsynth 0.3.7, Qtractor 0.5.10, and Rosegarden 13.06 "Imagination"
  
• Added the Non DAW suite of applications, including Timeline, Sequencer, Mixer, and Session Manager
  
• Edited /etc/eventmanager so that Studio 13.37 only saves at the end of a session, instead of every half hour after a save file is created
  
• Made Aqualung the default music player, removed Pmusic from menu
  
• Updated REAPER download/install script
  
• Enabled tap-to-click and edge-scrolling on laptop touchpads by default
  
• Added "shift-delete" and other keyboard shortcuts to file manager, more "Open With" options
  
• Added gtk engines for new Slickness theme
  
• Added file to system partition indicating whether version is 32 or 64 bit
  
• And more!

Now with Factory Reset!

Basically, from now on Studio 13.37 will ship with an empty savefile, which gets written to at the end of every session, without user interaction. The whole process of saving changes occurs behind the scenes, and is automatic.

But if, for whatever reason, the user wants to restore his usb stick to factory settings, Factory Reset will wipe it clean and reboot it in "brand new" condition.

[Announcer]

• tighter sfs integration with Shinobar's sfs-load at start
  
• faster loading of desktop
  
• better menus
  
• new easier savefile system - usb stick comes with an empty savefile which gets written to automatically at the end of every session
  
• Factory Reset - it shouldn't be necessary for a user to touch anything in their system files partition at all, unless he wants to resize the save file when it gets full. (If you use Studio 13.37 enough that your save file is getting full, you might want to consider installing it on your computer. Then you won't have to worry about save files.)
  
• Firefox updated to version 23 from 22
  
• added more info to the help page

[Announcer]

Oh, and I updated the website.

That Fatboy Slim piano chord sequence has been embedded in my bonce since you posted this. Stoppit.
I will have to go and listen to Green Onions to get rid of it.
