Now the 10th official release of Xformer, released on October 10 2018 and of course called Xformer 10, has been largely rewritten and optimized for today’s Windows 10 PCs and Windows 10 ARM64 devices, such as Microsoft Surface tablets, all-in-one touch-screen Sony VAIO desktops, and all-day Qualcomm Snapdragon-based ARM64 tablets. Xformer 10 has also been verified to run on Windows 7 machines but some of the cool new features that you will read about below are best used with modern touch-screen hardware.
After almost three years of development by Xformer creator Darek Mihocka and fellow Atari 8-bit developer Danny Miller, there are two big themes in this major upgrade of the classic ATARI 8-bit emulator Xformer.
Xformer runs Atari 400/800, Atari 800XL, and Atari 130XE software on Windows PCs. This new version comes, among other things, with autodetection functionality that automatically selects the right settings based on the Atari program you load. Nifty.
Since it just have been ported to 8 bits :

Cool, xformer back in the day could run more basic programs and professional software, but I don’t think it was ever real great at playing games.
Granted I have several Atari 8bit computers, and one that’s just completely upgraded with new video, stereo sound and a meg of memory, plus 20mhz CPU.
Xformer 10 may be out, but I couldn’t find a download link on their page. Only the older versions were available. The Xformer 10 page links to their download page, but the download is nowhere to be found.
I’m not sure what to think of something that was supposedly released more than a month ago but still have no download link :/

Thanks! They don’t link to that on the Atari 8-bit page, which instead links to the download page which doesn’t have it. The whole web site is not very well organized.
Yeah, the web is really not his thing, the whole site is out of date.
