This version has been updated and fixed, but is still v9
Summary:
Puppy Arcade is a retro video game emulation distro, supporting loads
of systems, with an all-in-one multi-emulator frontend and rom-loader.
Puppy Arcade 9 features lots of small improvements in the background,
particularly the custom Puppy Arcade apps, and the background setup.
Various networking and system scripts have been updated, adding fixes
found on the Puppy Forum, while keeping the changes that make 'TurboPup'
such an ideal, fast, base distro for creating Puppy Arcade.
Many apps have also been added or updated, and it has a nicer desktop
taskbar, with easier system setup, thanks to some updated and customised
JWM tray tools.
I don't expect a lot of new interest in this, but if you find any bugs or have any
suggestions, please post them at the Puppy Arcade homepage, or here.
