Hello, dear users remarkable
computer "ZX-SPECTRUM". "What is it wonderful?" You ask.
To this we answer you - very much. For example, though the fact
that him in the next year marks 17 years - a very respectable
age for such a machine, and in its class - it is the most
old computer in the world in general. Born in the UK,
Clive Sinclair's lab in 1982, and triumphantly walking up
around the world, he found his second home in our country: from
Kuril Islands to Kaliningrad.
Spectrum is remarkable by the fact that he issued
a record number of software, from toys and
sistemok to electronic journals and music videos.
There was even a new genre in computer art - demomeyking,
which embodied the most advanced ideas of domestic
programmers. Formed Spectrum Scene -
very professional work and the best of which,
do not cease to surprise us with their achievements in
graphics, music, programming. After all, what kind of games
already on the Speccy: a what was once the exclusive privilege
of "large" computers, is becoming a reality here. Domestic
programmers were able to achieve incredibly high density of
code: because the Spectrum - the only computer, every third
the user is somehow engaged in creativity:
whether coder, artist or musician.

pure altruism.
