Naming silliness aside, I'm glad they got this out.

The changelog seems to be mostly minor bugfixes, but it looks like the most important feature is that Zorro 3 and motherboard RAM can now be used as real system RAM on Classic (and WinUAE/FS-UAE) systems instead of just swap space. That's a big deal!

Heck yeah,  this may actually convince me to put it on my 4000T now.

News to me that this was the case - and you are right, it IS a big deal. :)

Well I just updated and it broke my system. All I get is a pink screen after it restarts. Pisses me off!

NOT a good start to a supposedly Cyberstorm friendly release. :(
