News
So, anything new has happened in St. Petersburg
recently:
- Finally! The firm released the Scorpion
welcome SMUC - Scorpion 'MOA Universal Controler. And this
thing, as you know, designed to:
a. Connect to the Zx HDD (hard drive)!
b. Connect to the Zx Hayes-modem without
any revisions computer:
just put the modem - and work!
c. Connections CMOS-clock and NVRAM.
Already this weekend controller sold
on the market in Avtovo and cost about 114 thousand (do not
remember exactly, but something like that).
Henceforth, the Spectrum becomes a full
personal computer, because without
HDD was still not quite complete ... :)
Ability to connect Hayes'a without any additional cost "pull"
in Fido's just a sea sinkleristov, because
cost Hayes'a at 2400 baud = $ 20, that
only $ 5 more expensive Vicomm'a!
CMOS clocks (ie clocks, which operate
even when the computer is powered)
as well as NVRAM (nonvolatile RAM)
is also very necessary and useful "pieces of iron."
We directly contacted by Scorpion
and as soon as possible in our newspaper
will be published a series of articles on the device'u and
other developments Sergei Zonova.
- A week ago, came out the same long-promised Logros studio
film about Enlight. Whole we have not yet looked at, but
the first reviews of it - very best!
- Two weeks ago (sorry, in the past
Newskah just forgot to write ...) were
fixed some glyuchkov in krisovskom
boot'e / view'ere enlight'ovskih demos / images / Mouzon. Now,
all that was on Enlight '96, you can buy on the market (2 CDs)
or download bbs'ok. Unfortunately, demos that did not go to
Scorpion'e and do not go ... : (
- Do you remember, was on Enlight'e a demo: "MINK" - Made in
Kazan? It did not work on Scorpion'e due to the fact that the
guys from EXCESS megagroup not have time to write a normal
boot. They finish it already the first day Enlight'a, sitting
Igor Mayorov home ... Then, during the compo, the demo quickly
"squandered" by the end, so that good, in general, the effects
were not appreciated in the audience. Frankly, MINK was worthy
of a much higher place than the occupied.
So. Dimka of Excess sent version
with modified boot loader, which is quite
normally works on a turbo-Scorpio, for
Except multicolor. As soon as I have a normal modem (Hayes),
have gone it bbs / to echo. :) And soon I will give her
VIks'u - let it sells itself ...
