First Day
For me it was a complete surprise
meet at the Festival of Representatives
Groups Techno Lab. Good guys, I would
he said, convinced spektrumisty, the more
We have already vsrechalis on SS'99. So
deysvitelno talk was about. Here
a small excerpt of the conversation
that I could not write.
K> Please introduce yourself.
V> Roschupko Victor S. / VTS.
M> Zharnikov Maxim Mikhailovich / Maxx.
Came from the city of Krasnodar.
K> For what purpose came to Paradox'2000?
V> Meet people, see Cusick ...
M> They brought Krasnodar work.
K> What is it?
M> Graphics: GAS 13, music: Nik-O/Techno
Lab. We hope to schedule to take
first place, even specifically taken
Daddy for the diploma, so as not to wrinkle.
K> It seems that in the first place you have configured
for real?
M> Actually, yes, go wrong with some
purpose.
K + A than specifically for Spectrum'a
do you do?
V> I zhelezyachnik.
K> And what did you invent?
V> I will not say that I invented while
I will not do so as not to jinx it.
K> And what do you think is the best Spectrum
at the moment and why?
V> I think KAY - this is the most
the optimal machine for production,
because the meter KAY'e in principle
much that is asked demomeykery,
except Inta - 312 lines. AND
In general, think KAY - best
optimum computer from all positions.
K> What can you say about the firm and the Scorpion
its products?
V> I was in St. Petersburg, came to the firm
Scorpion. There is a provision:
Scorpion'om by only one
Lasers. He repairs and makes
specific zakazy.Zonov and all other
has long been Spectrum'ami not engaged,
only the MOA on the enthusiasm sometimes something
wrote. As he himself admitted, during which he
no one pays.
K> What kind of computers most
common to you in Krasnodar?
V> We basically have a broad
dissemination of computer around, "Krasnodar" and
very close to it, "Impulse", which
produced Zonov - very Brake
machine, then, as usual, "Leningrad"
and Pentagon'y little.
K> KAY, Scorpion have spread?
V> In principle, the hands are.
K> What Spectrum'y have you personally?
M> I have a Pentagon-128, is sufficient
heaped: mouse, modem, two sovox'a
and some more additions.
V> I KAY!!! With 40MB screw, and the markups
had stood the screw on the 250MB!
K> And this hard drive works in TR-DOS?
V> Well, not quite. For example, the meter
KAY'e organized in memory RAM disc,
which is emulated through 3D13, can
throwing blanks with IS-DOS, and in principle
so also works as a TR-DOS. At this
time for other machines is not
support, except for firmware
TR-DOS v.5, 12 under the Pentagon, there are also
RAM disc set as possible. Viper was going to
make Techno Rom, which will
supported RAM DISC for all
other machines.
K> By what percentage has been done?
M> Demo Version showed an emulator
works pretty well.
V> There will be an interface, instead of 128 BASIC
42 characters, white on black ...
K> I know that you are doing
issue of the newspaper KrNews?
V> Yes, exactly, is a newspaper for purely
Krasnodar topics.
K> A new issue of what went on this
moment?
V> KrNews # 12 released, 13 will be released as soon
Only it will material
Paradox'a.
To> How is working on a newspaper ZX-HARD?
V> Send to number from zero on the second,
now a third case.
K> Something is weak.
V> But it started much later and
materials mainly come from me.
Would love to others interested
people, not to insert any
reprint, namely its own
write.
K> What to do Speccy Maxx?
M> Basically, I write articles, but the main
lesson - it is trading in the Krasnodar
market and sell software for the ZX Spectrum.
K> Do you trade only the software or do you
there is still a fair product?
M> only trade wheels and nothing more
others.
K> What the most recent available in your
available?
M> The last thing that was ordered from the authors
- A CRIME SANTA CLAUS: DEJA VU with
Ukraine, ordered 20 copies, I will
sell.
K> And you do not know, Black Raven 2 already
opportunity to buy?
M> No, it has not yet emerged. I Mednonogovym
communicated on the internet, not so long ago,
somewhere a little less than a month ago. Glory
said that now is no time, until the project
frozen.
K> In connection with what?
M> Jobs, Internet design, or something
this sort. Works for the money.
K> What you can still add to
said above?
M> Come to the market and buy
Authors software!
V> Involve users to buy hardware!
K> What is your opinion on
Festival Paradox 2k?
M> Chairs little. The exact same problem -
black and white prektor.
V> I think it's all on what sponsors
PC'eshnye and their first
interested PC.I access to Spectrum'istov
The projector has been limited. For example,
could be seen during a party
tuned grayscale.
K> But not everyone was so bad, maybe
something like that?
V> It was a good premise and
design, like the presence of
major sponsors. People had a lot of
but probably it is mostly local. In
Peter to come to the local CC'99
Conversely, twisted.
M> Yes, a good place. The only pity is that
work on the Speccy was not enough.
K> How do you think, how much was
spektrumistov a percentage?
M> Potsentov 30-40 exactly ...
Such were the arguments and opinions from reviews
Krasnodar, perhaps someone with them
agree. But one thing is sure: all the things
good that is done to your computer ZX
Spectrum, deserves everyone's attention and
respect.
