Please note that from this version registered users will have access to internal versions of xbench. This does not mean that unregistered users will have access to fewer public release but registered users will have access to the internal versions that were not previously released (For testing purpose only cause those unpublished versions are often still heavily bugged). This way of proceeding will most certainly avoid some errors from my part that made ​​some previous updates unusable due to lack of testing.

Excellent, must try it out ! I still have an older version installed but it was doing the job...
thanks for this usefull tool and I consider making a review for the french fanzine Amigapower (the drawback is that there so many versions released that the moment I am doing the review and the moment the fanzine is released, it will be obsolete !).

BTW how do I register ? never heard about registration since today...

Mmmm .. you're right i must stop updating xbench so often ... :laugh1:
Don't hesitate to contact me if you want some more info or have some question for your review.

All is explained in the xbench.guide it's really easy.
Please note that xbench is donationware not shareware so the unregistered users doesn't have special limitation except a screen at startup who's encouraging to get a key.
