Steem is an open source Atari STE emulator for Windows and Linux. It runs almost
every ST program ever made without any problems.
Steem is designed to be easy to use and has many unique features. Whether you want
to run great old games, use MIDI apps just like you did on the ST or you have some
other, more sinister motive, Steem is the emulator for you!
To learn how to get Steem up and running read the beginners' guide.
If you're interested in the on-going development, you can access the source code
and the project forum to see what's going on.
Steem was originally developed by Anthony and Russ Hayward. We haven't updated it since 2004 and we released the source code
as open source in 2011. "Steven Seagal" has forked and continued to develop and improve Steem - see the Steem
SSE SourceForge Page for more details.
12th April 2015 - Open Source Steem moved to Github
Steem has outlived Google Code and so we have migrated it to Github.
Another update to the comprehensive disk image database by Keili see the
database page for more details.
10th December 2005 - Database update
A new version of the disk image database is available with many new disks added. Many thanks again to Keili
