 Dear listateli newspapers
"Za Rulem". I'd like to share with
you my thoughts on the current at
Today the situation. In general, just say
I wanted to.

 Quite useless predictions
SPECCY fate in our own time. It is absolutely
nothing will happen until we are. I have
view all spektrumistov our state. And how do magazines, so
his hair stood on end becomes: is
war between the PC, AMIGA and small Spectrum, which is already 
generally trampled in this battle of titans. I honestly do not 
see any combat. Battle long ago won the RS. :-( I have an 
Amiga, incidentally, is also nowhere not seen. I even took out 
many of its friends, the owners of the PC, asking them:

"We saw such a miracle?" "There is not a computer!" - Surely 
they shook his head. "Well, you're retarded!" - I laughed and 
said: "Yes AMIGA shut up for the belt of any pisyuk! ", and 
immediately tried to move away from location of our 
conversation, because their questions reply to this computer 
could not. However, I digress.

 What can we talk about the death of this
wonderful computer, when I, the owner of Tetris, a dandy and 
shogi, bought a Spectrum? In fact, I have found a place where 
their do, and money for its purchase, and nerves

waiting for my order. And I bought it
not just play games and learn
write a native. No dandy, no
Sega can not teach me this. But not
will be compared.


                             Billy Gates.

                             And being beaten!

 Now let's talk about MS. In a paper
DEJA VU I read that IBM won
the whole world only because of its "flexible"
motherboard and the availability of tires.
Like, to connect to the new Spectrum kakoynibud pribambas, you 
have to disassemble and do soldering on the already clogged IC 
card, and personalke enough to open the cover and insert the 
device the appropriate connector, and so now

always used IBM.
 What nonsense! It's not a computer architecture. It's not 
about his abilities. Case in R E K L A M EG you've seen 
somewhere in the TV (and it was on TV)

advertisement Spectrum or Amiga? I do not. A
Advertising on this a Pentium - just zasmotris. When I wanted 
to buy a Spectrum, I knew all the rounds, trying to find out 
where you can buy a new Spectrum-128 with the drive. Only one 
of them knew  a place where "like making controllers",

and that's where computers - do not know. And I had to buy 
Spectrum used. Although they now all used, I guess.



                            Want to

                         program quickly

                            worked?

                       Remove all HALTy.

 Now I would like to touch on an important ONU
aside the question of the software market
software for the Spectrum.
 I was there a conversation with one owner pisyuka:
I (mock-sochustvuyusche)> How to

   road now compact discs for

   computer. Up to $ 100 profit!
He is "A to Spectrum as a floppy disk

   cost?
I (proudly)> Up to 20 rubles.
He> And how many games out there on it?
I (Sensing a catch), if small -

   then to 10, and if large, new and
   we'll get - then one of two floppy disks ...
He was (sarcastically)> Well, someone drives up to
   Roger? I will buy one CD for

   60 rubles, and on him 300 games, all for
   archived, all big and new.
 And because he was right. Software
software for the Spectrum now really expensive. There's nothing 
you can do, and we'll buy it. But enough complain that the 
software does not pays off, all for free copy

imagine any software and not pay for it.
 Read DEJA VU - the authors of the journal
have even frighten us copy protection. Yes, and launched an 
unprecedented share - make all freeloaders transfer of 10 
rubles to the publisher. And wonder why nobody takes. That's 
really where truly childish innocence. It's

like trying to force the thief
voluntarily return the stolen goods.
 Well, that's all I wanted to say.
 The latest joke today:
