So this is what a first post feels like... it feels kinda nice. :-D

Downloading it right now at a whopping 1KB a second, so I think I'll be waiting a while before I can make any long comments that actually say something ;-)

oh, and multi monitor support?  Thanks WinUAE guys!  It made my day when I saw it in the 24 release :-)

[Lo]

Another excuse to obtain another monitor! Yes!

[Ross_Geller]

Who's needs an excuse??  Buy another monitor now! :-D
I've got two 17 inch monitors on a Radeon 9000, and I'm in geek heaven 8-)  There's nothing better than being able to have TWO webpages open at the same time hehe ok, ok, but it really helps in web design, and basically anything else where you'd normally be switching windows to the front quite often.

Go Lo, and obtain for yourself another monitor! :-D

(Now all I've got to do is figure out if there's a way of sharing the mouse pointer between Windows and WinUAE...)
