Good day, dear readers of the newspaper!
I want to once again congratulate you with all passed
holidays and wish you all what you do
themselves wished.
And now for some news. Got finally
parcel from Nemo. In the parcel was XTR-modem and a floppy
with the software under this deal, and even a letter on two
sheets of how unfortunate Nemo six months trying to do
my order and I am as I could stop him. Oh well. Now the modem.
First, the modem from the outset seemed to me suspicious,
because He was covered with a thick-thick layer of dust from
the PCB were traces of solder, one of the capacitors was broken
off (probably during transportation). Once payment has been
cleaned and were washed found other, more unpleasant moments:
nepripayannoy was leg power transistors
printed conductor, supplying the "ground" on a line of
eight chips was blown (!!!!) and was
neatly tucked under one of the chips. Completed the all of this
mess some photocopies of the passport Modem (kserokopiya!!),
where Nemo did not even bother fill in the certificate of sale
with a warranty.
Well, gentlemen, good things, so will "support
producers of iron for Spectrum or not to
I now have this issue resolved once and for all.
Other news. New Year's were not easy
vacation. Almost all my free time doing
assembly of CMOS-hours VEL'a and SOUNDRIVE for Anatoly Apollo,
or rather for Dmitry Krapivina on request of Anatolia. This was
compounded by the fact that almost all materials and equipment
left on native plant, so we had a lot to buy and
occupy. But nothing like all gathered in time, even
left little time to drive these glands
your computer. Both boards are working fine.
For myself almost finished assembling "Super Vicomm-3" - the
modem by PhF. Software under him sent Ice Di, the order from
which came unexpectedly quickly. Still, Chelyabinsk - Saransk
... By the way, and the program he is cheap. So, I highly
recommend ...
By the way, Ice Di offered me a very interesting package with
"Black Voronom_new. I have some games are not particularly
interest, so the book is not going to, but anyone interested in
this mess, I recommend to look into the "engine of trade." And
now, it seems, everything. Read the newspaper ...
