A little about yourself
Hi! Not waiting for? And here we are! Energy Group
welcomes you!
Immediately answer a few questions that
surely someone else emerge. First: this is your sho Energy
Group, is why I do not know?
The answer is:
Energy (NRG) Group was founded at the turn
20 and 21 centuries and unites individuals who
not indifferent to the Speccy as such, and computers in
general. At the moment it is officially part of the five
people:
1) Black Cat-Panasenko Igor.
The head of the group, for the most experienced and old:),
among others. Engaged in the ZX since 1993. Began with the
miracle of technology nicknamed "Robic." Currently, successful
works at Spectrum Pro 1024.
Coder, hacker, translator, designer, GFX;
in short, everything except the music. And, in fact,
principal author releases NRG (including, and this creation) is
he (ie ya!) 2) Disk Killer - Podgaevskaya Igor.
The main purpose of this unit - the creation of graphics. Not
bad versed in matters of strategy (in the first place, of
course, in the Black Raven). 3). RU - Lyapunov Ruslan
Vladimirovich.
This fellow - the subject of much discussion. About Speccy
knows virtually nothing but with great interest considering
demos, admiring the cool effect. Himself
has (every day:) PC, the characteristics of
which I am afraid even to pronounce. But, since
Anyway, all the projects going on with his NRG
by (of course, imeeetsya not mean
so much. RU, as its feature-rich
calculator).
4) Kingsize-Turuta Aleksandr Yurevich.
Young, but quite promising personality. Encoder, a hacker and
just a little bit GFX-er. 5) MBA Shadow-Bogdan A. Mishin.
Came to us, in general, by accident. Knowledge
ZX is very close to zero, as the company
Use the above mentioned "Robic, although
with col. monitor and flopovertom 5.25. "However, as a game
tester, MBA - is indispensable.
That's all that I would like to tell
about us. And now for the title. It would seem
why the "Promised Land"?
(For those who are not groping in ENGLISH: translation
simple as a door: "Promised Land"!)
How popular computer system
Spectrum predicted a decline in the early nineties. And so, in
the court the 21 st century. Yes, Of course, the number of
people actively engaged Speccy at least at the level of
geymerstva decreased tenfold. However, despite all the promises
of lower prices for "pisyuki" in the same ten times in ten
years, it's all does not occur. That is, tell me honestly:
each is now available to mere mortals money that way, 300
bucks? And because so many is not steepest Pentium; more than
that - very poyuzany.
Do you know how to lay out,
to be able, for example, watch a movie on CD-ROM in MPEG, with
acceptable level of audio and video? (Prompt: the number of the
previous paragraph must be multiplied by 2 or so ...)
It turns out that the price is not in
favor of IBM and compatible. Yes, I can already see
someone zayavlet: "Duc, it's worth it!"
Maybe so ... And yet, as were PeTse
product for wealthy people and left ...
And what about the Speccy? I think not mistaken, if
I will say that those who are now something works on
stage ZX - the strongest guys! They do not need a gigabyte hard
drive, no video mad razreshalki nor, of course, megabytes of
RAM. That is, run some demo type LAZARUS or DIESIRAE; they do
on more modest machines but - what is the effect! It turns out
that laziest long piled up close to IBM,
and only the best sinkleristy remained faithful
themselves and Spectrum'u. Is it not turned in
us the real Promised Land???
Here you want to digress and say its strong H-E-T
authors of electronic publications FAULTLESS. (In
primarily refers to # 4).
They claim: that the divorced any
computer magazines and newspapers in the world
Speccy, take up the all and sundry.
The result - a bunch of second-rate goods
and sometimes explicit marriage.
Tell me, gentlemen, you, too, once
to start somewhere? But where to begin their
self-affirmation of the modern sinkleristu
or group thereof, except - with the magazine
or a newspaper?
Like any other media outlet,
computer magazine - is a way to express
themselves for all to hear, if you will - self-promotion. Yes,
a masterpiece for a couple of days does not do. But to hear
criticism, people will think. Further, there are three options:
1) If our journalists do not care and he does not listen to any
arguments, or unwilling to develop - well, nothing
except samodiskreditatsii, this does not happen. The rest is
just easier - all will vivid example of how not to do.
2) discouraged sound criticism, the editors throw his job after
the first number. Alas, as often happens. More than that:
probably nothing worthwhile for the ZX they never will.
3) Ideal: that comments, growth
level of professionalism of the authors and publications.
Everything to gain!
To make more specific conclusions, I
OFFICIALLY DECLARE: Editorial comments
FAULTLESS'a and the like have made great contribution to
reducing the number of active users ZX-Spectrum.
... Ugh, well, rashvilosofstvovalsya! ...
Immediately I will explain: I am neither personally, nor
anyone else of ENERGY GROUP does not consider himself a
computer ace (and I do know that I am lamer:). Therefore,
please do not bother us with stupid questions like, "You sho,
opupeli? Who writes? "We all learned a little ...
And now - the main thing. Our zhurnalets in
Unlike most other magazines and
newspapers in the Speccy, in a rather small degree dedicated
SOFTu and HARDu - all at zero. The main thing after all - fun!
