    I could swear I had seen this news here but it seems you're the first to post it...

    In any case the greatest advance here is the g1-IDE support!

    I didn't even know it had GDI support until I just tried Blue Stinger.

    I actually like their ISO loader ... I hope they will make a direct boot to that w/o launching DreamShell etc. first.

    I haven't used my SDLoader for years - how does this compare to previous versions? (talking about compatibility for games)

    Dreamshell 4.0 was pretty slow, RC1 was much faster. However, most of the rom images had to be rebuilt for RC1 and they weren't done. Nobody wanted to be bothered, and so some games that worked on 4.0 won't work on RC1. No idea if that remains a problem with RC2.
