<br />
yeah boy. once again it's time for some<br />
news and rumours from the cool c64 scene<br />
it has been almost 2 month ago since i<br />
released issue 09 of this magazine.<br />
this is the reason why some of the news<br />
might be a bit old.<br />
but as said in previous issue : i don't<br />
give a f**k about how old or how new the<br />
news is.. i rather say it is information<br />
about what happend since the previous<br />
issue.<br />
<br />
ok better start to read before the news<br />
get too old. he-he...<br />
<br />

so the compo was running in b/w but<br />
with cool sound facilities)<br />
<br />
<br />
* blueboxing is said to be dead in frg<br />
<br />

ron were said to be members of this<br />
group. this is not true. "master s"<br />
was offered to join and requested<br />
these facts while calling up rrr. i<br />
(ed. rrr) can't imagine that the<br />
real "majesty" would call up a dude<br />
like "master s" to have him in an<br />
elite group so i presume it was a<br />
fake like the offer to join "ikari".<br />
