The Ocelot Cemetery by Turk182! is now available for the Apple IIgs in both French and English versions. Deep within a forgotten valley lies an estate that travelers have avoided for generations.

From Colin Leroy-Mira: New release of Quicktake for Apple II! This one brings quite a few more cameras to the party: Sierra cameras (Epson PhotoPC PCDC001, Sanyo VPC-G1, Sanyo VPC-G200, Sierra Imaging SD640, and probably quite a few more), Canon PowerShot 350, Fujifilm DX-8, Konika Q-Mini, Panasonic NV-DCF1. Sadly none of those include support for thumbnails, as they are JPEG-encoded….

Well, it is funny how a typo can creep into a code base but in the case of GBBS, it did. 1990 was the year and the last version of the GBBS code was put together complete with a mistyped return code for the Hayes Modem. We would never have discovered it if it were not for one of our…
