Defaulted, rulez, mazday!
======================
Default - the dollar is worth 27 rubles
Rulez - we have released a CD
Mazday - anyone not interested in it (so far)
(A.R. 1999)
This is not an April Fool's joke, is the result of last
year. And the fact that Our ad is in April, then
We are not to blame. But on this occasion
have a good anecdote:
Question:
- Could be an April Fool's joke
Christmas present?
Answer:
- Maybe it's as from April 1 to the New
year (January 1) at exactly 9 months.
The release of our compact fell just
New Year (a little symbolic ...) So,
all described hereafter is absolutely true.
All the jokes in other pages of this magazine!
April 1, 1998 we (Di-All Entertainment) suggested that the
entire Spectrum of the public at least respond, ie, send a
request for a proposal to create a CD with a collection of
programs for SPECCY. This appeal remained for a long time
without attention, respectively, we not receiving any support
from the spektrumistov, did not do anything ... because
estimated amount of work was simply a giant.
It took about three months and we suddenly
received an application letter from A. Strelnikova.
We really thought that now, finally, the ice was broken and the
application shall flow a river. Therefore, we can safely begin
work on a CD ... But some have begun work, but the application
... The second request came after 5 months. Someone wrote some
reason, the address of the magazine, someone, generally, no
wrote ... I understand all took it as April Fool's joke. But we
have something from you money is not asked, we just offered you
express an opinion on the creation of this
CD-ROM. Letter of application to anything you
does not oblige, but we would know that, for example,
1000 people want to get this CD
disc. Accordingly, the rate of appearance
This compact would be 10 times higher. But I
understand it, everyone who even was interested in getting this
CD, sat stupidly silent. Like, that's when you are, then write.
Well, there was! Write! Only now is this drive is now not 60
rubles, as it was possible, and 90, although
we are because of this we lose a huge pile of money
because the cost of the disk (bolvanka50r., forward-10p., seal
the liner-5p., Other-5p.) entire seventy rubles, and we
is only 0.7 dollar. While the recorder
for compacts now costs 9000 rubles ...
Seeing this state of affairs our enthusiasm
slowly faded, and eventually, extinct
altogether. Because work without any support from you, it was
absolutely pointless. But one (?) Day came DanieL
and said (to shame), that the time promised
make a CD, you have to do and offered to help. Of assistance,
we certainly do not refused and went to work. At the end of
(?) Of this titanic work, we figured
it (work) capacity. It turned out that it looked around 1000
TRD-ROM drive and select (Sorted - cataloged) about
700. Just a titanic work of three people
within 600 hours. Who does not believe, can
himself to try to do the following: run the game, to determine
its full name, company, publisher, intro maker
availability of music, the presence of cheat,
russifitsirovannost, check out the directory is there this prog
in it or not, if not, then copy this program to the appropriate
section of the prog and drive Record this entire Moore in the
program directory. THEN Taking the timing of all this Leapfrog
TIME FOR 5000 (this is the number of programs
which we watched) and Estimate, prepared
Do you spend so much time ABSOLUTELY
FREE. And we do not play, we just
done, done and done ...
And now, a year later we can say that the disk with the
programs for the Spectrum ready. There were glitches, we kill
them in a little, add the new software coming, though free
space on the compact only a couple of megabytes, but we Coy
then optimize. We have just received the disc from Alex
Injector'a, on it is about 160MB TRD-images. Maybe something
add to your disc.
Theoretically, this article was to
become an advertisement. But really
assessing the situation, I come to the conclusion that
no one is in principle no need for dick. There
a couple dozen people who have different
ways to get our CD. Revoked,
like a good idea, but just something ...
Although we are announcing the price of this disc at 10
dollars, lowered it 3-4 times, and now,
selling this drive for 3.5 dollars, just
kill themselves in the bud. But the other way
apparently not ... (Personally, I would buy this CD
and for 300 rubles, but you are not me ... sad ...)
Actually end up creating one
compact, we almost immediately took the
to work on the second CD under the code
called CD-Rom II Image. This CD is actually ready for
dissemination. At this CD-ROM collected about 9000 programs
in various formats: TAP, TZX, SNA, Z80,
SLT, DSK, TD0. All this wealth is
450Mb. (One program may be in different
formats, so the actual number of programs, some less).
Unfortunately, Currently, a catalog of the disk is not possible
due to the fact that most of the programs is
into the recorder format and, accordingly,
loaded, though not in realtime, but still not as fast as a
TRD-ROM.
Below are the contents of both of our
CDs and conditions of their acquisition.
