Gospoda! I write because he did not
can no longer molchat. Nabolelo,
nakipelo and ready vyrvatsya naruzhu that seychas happening.
Snachala rasskazhu a little about yourself.
I professionalno zanimayus
Computer grafikoy, rabotayu in
izdatelstve dizaynerom. My name
appears in the output dannyh
two pretty solid zhurnalov.
Tak is it that as a possible
I'm still a hobby zanimayus and three grafikoy, animatsiey and
video. Ha my account one commercial
video and all sorts of zastavok and animashek, sdelannyh for
friends and just tak "for the soul."
That is, the scope of my interests
includes the main large screen applications
Computer grafiki - poligrafiya and video. Tak that, my opinion
everything can be nizheskazannom
schitat dostatochno installment of the objective.
Ha corner krichat Each time a new,
"Mnogozadachnoy", "Multithreaded", "true 32-razryadnoy"
Windows 95. (Tfu!) Allow at least nenamnogo open
Glaza unto you, zashorennye nashey
Computer propagandoy by force of impact is not ustupayuschey
receded into the past (but quite
possible in the future blizhayshem)
propagande communist. A
'm not nado be ekstrasensom,
to see that all the propaganda eta napravlyaetsya computer
monopolies seeking zahvatit not only computer
market, but also sami polzovateley minds, then to seamlessly
vykachivat of their money. A poor polzovateli dazhe podumat and
can not be that there is a the world something else besides this
nenasytnogo monstra, nazyvaemogo
IBM PC! But davayte in order
rassmotrim all without any extra emotion. You kogda something
zadumyvalis nad so why dinozavry extinct? Odna of the
hypotheses is that their evolution in zashla
deadlock. Increased massy tela gigantskih dinozavrov led to
increase massy skeleta, a more massivnomu skeleton trebovalis
more powerful muscles, a This, in turn, led to
even higher massy tela.
Zamknuty circle! It is unto you anything
not napominaet? Increasingly "navorochennye" programmy and
systems require more resources,
appear more powerful computers, but for them goes all the more
resource-intensive software. "Upgrade, please upgrade! "Odnako,
perefraziruya Krylova," A Word and now tam "" Nay, Nay, all is
well acquaintances MS Word for Windows. What umela version 2.0?
Nabirat and pechatat text. What Can version 7.0 for Windows 95?
Pravilno! Same samoe! (Any graficheskie
"Pribabahi" does not count, all ravno
spetsializirovannye programmy it
delayut better and grafikoy Word
usually no one uses). Zato Word 2.0 prekrasno rabotal nA
386, a new Wordu dazhe 486 nA
DX2/66 with 8 MB of closely! Yes that tam
Word! Samoy Windows 95
8MB of memory is already malo! Otkryvaem
gazetu "Computerworld - Russia"
N9 (26) of 12 marta 1996 Year period and
Refer to (p. 10): "Increasing
The memory is more than 16 Mbayt does not lead to increased
productivity zametnomu ... eight same megabayt clearly
nedostatochno - all is half as fast. "If you want more detail
uznat svoystvah of the new system - chitayte yanvarsky room "PC
Magazine - Russian Edition", tam given very objective and
comprehensive analyzes of Windows 95 and
sravnenie it with other systems from. A I give a few examples
from personal opyta and the words acquaintances to me people
who takzhe, HOW I rabotayut in izdatelskom case. - 3
consecutive series number known in Sankt-Petersburg gazety
"Neva time" does not go of za ustanovki redaktsii in Windows
95. Then he had to go back to Windows 3.11. - In redaktsiyah
gazet "Severnaya Stolitsa", "Reklama-Shans, zhurnala
"Telephoto" is not possible schitayut rabotat in Windows 95
of za numerous hard-soft
conflicts. - In izdatelstve
"Glagol" had otkazatsya from
ispolzovaniya Windows 95 and return to staroy konfiguratsii
takzhe from za conflicts. A zavershenie to offer unto you spend
small experiment, unless, of course, the vas is possible. In
its Windows 95 zapustite System Monitor (System
Monitor). Path zapuska takoy:
Start -> Programs -> Assessories-> System Tools-> System
Monitor. The monitor then diagrammu, pokazyvayuschuyu number
zanyatoy The memory (Allocated Memory). Well, vpechatlyaet!
Dazhe in "Clean", just zapuschennoy
system zanyatymi okazyvayutsya from
10 to 20 MB of memory is, and nezavisimo on how much total
The memory in the mashine has. I tested this nA raznyh
mashinah: 486 DX4/100 with 32MB, 486 DX4/100 with
12MB, 486 DX2/66 c memory is 16MB and
nA Pentium 90 with 64MB. Ha sistemah with 12 and 16 MB was
zanyato all RAM and so virtualnoy memory is much needed
nedostavalo to 20 MB. And sistema otbiraet samuyu memory is
better - RAM, of course, ostavlyaya nA
share applications, memory is slow virtualnuyu. A here is odna
interesnaya feature of Windows
95: after vyhoda of applications
resources are not vosstanavlivayutsya -
sistema itself does not clean! This zametno after several
zapuska Application - by the end of the day sistema
rabotaet slower and slower. A at rabote with grafikoy it
is already apparent srazu - costs
zapustit Adobe Photoshop, porabotat therein zatem out, zapustit
QuarkXPress, go, a zatem again zapustit Photoshop.
Everything! Rabotat already prakticheski
impossible! And now I have to tak a lot raz nA Day perezapuskat
computer. And that nA Pentium90, with 64 MB of memory is! Tak
that is it? Impasse? Nay, if the tandem
Intel + Microsoft obrazom not radically revise its concept of
PC-compatible computers. But they do not sobirayutsya its
peresmatrivat. Profitable for them naraschivat endless
nagromozhdeniya of megagerts and megabayt while taschit za a
load of the notorious 640 kilobayt system memory is.
For what? For compatibility with
starym programmnym software!
It's all ravno, HOW nA new high-speed locomotive derzhat about
zapas parovoy boiler and all ostalnye prichindaly parovoza - a
suddenly have rabotat nA angle!
Tak is the way out? A because it
is! Only when nashem Sov
brain zastoe very hard
overcome the inertia of thinking and
sober look nA things. Take a break, gospoda, from the eternal
"Trahanya" c software and hardware,
and look around! In the world after all
There are many other good and raznyh platform than IBM PC! Ha
that are worth a look? Ha
Macintosh? Indeed, the very
horoshaya mashina, especially for
grafiki and dizayna only Daily price
nA her and her soft painfully kusaetsya! What else? SGI? But
this mashina for multimillionaires. Not kazhdaya dazhe
schitayuschaya a major studio afford to have takuyu rabochuyu
stations of, a dazhe and buying, put back in the large screen
raza more money za programmnoe
software. A what else? And then
vsplyvaet staroe well zabytoe, a maybe someone staratelno
zabyvaemoe word - AMIGA. Yes yes,
TA samaya Amiga, kotoraya for
bolshinstva obyvateley computer or do neizvestna,
or assotsiiruetsya kakoy with a
tam toy telepristavkoy,
something like "Dandy". Horosha
"Telepristavochka" skazhu I unto you!
With a 50 MHz MC68030 processor, 8
MB of memory is 1GB and the hard drive, I
I can totally napryagayas,
delat nA it what delayu not calmly and strongly napryagayas nA
Pentium 64Mb memory is 90 c and 1.6 GB hard drive! Here is an
example - one of my rabochy day. Odnazhdy had delat
reklamny original-maket for
Color zhurnala razmerom
215x300 mm razresheniem 300 dpi
(Who does not znaet - explained: 300 points nA inch - while
razmere stranitsy velichina graficheskogo
relative to the file dostigaet about
2200x3300 dots (pixels) or 25
NA MB disk formate TIFF). Tak
here - making this maketa
I zanyalo 12 chasov rabochego
time. I ispolzoval any
tam special effects such as multi-nalozheniya, kollazhirovaniya
and etc., which obespechivaet Us
Adobe Photoshop. In this nastupil takoy moment kogda Photoshop
3.05 (optimizirovanny under Windows 95) nachal vydavat message
that he was not physically hvataet The memory (RAM) (a y nas
because 64 MB). After mnogochasovoy fuss with all sorts of
drayverami, ustanovkami etc. had installirovat previous version
- 3.04. By evening, tired and
wicked, I came home with zahvativ
a CD with the original slaydami and
sdelal all Houses nA Amige ZA large screen
CHASA in the programme ImageFX 2.1.
In this case, I rabotal manager
virtualnoy The memory VMM 3.2, the physical memory is it was 10
Mb (2 MB chip + 8MB of fast), ispolzovalas
All fizicheskaya memory is out and about
100 MB of memory is virtualnoy. Well
HOW takoy unto you an example? Pravda,
srazu same argument can foresee average polzovatelya domashney
IBM-ki: "A game that's nA
CD-ROM ... "Yea, the game from a CD to
IBM stali very rasprostraneny y
nas blagodarya kitayskoy shtampovke. And animatsii in 256
colors krasivye ... But, my dear IBM-schik, HOW you treat to
faktu, that nA Amige in CD-igrah all animatsii go to 16 million
colors (Mode HAM-8), and this is standartom! There is no
reconcile "podtormazhivany"
only plavnye of colors,
sound ... Kstati, about the sound. I am with
friends testiroval zvuchanie Amigi in sravnenii with PC,
snabzhennoy platami Gravis Ultrasound and AWE 32. Sound is
output nA stereo amplifier with output
100 W nA kanal and speakers takoy same capacity. All
priznali that the Amiga sounds better. Vtoraya on kachestvu
byla plata Gravis Ultrasound, which could sravnit with sound
Amigi to filter high chastot. It is worth mentioning
about television and video. Eta oblast of computer
grafiki long schitalas monopoly only Amigi. In St. Petersburg
very many studios and rabotali
rabotayut nA Amigah. But the new
studio otdavaya dan fashion, either
influenced pressinga kompany,
selling PC, priobretayut very
expensive and very bad rabotayuschie
PC - stations of. Odnako on otzyvam
known masterov computer
grafiki, nowhere is there anything better
for animatsii than Deluxe Paint
5.0 Amigi. And the design teleperedach in realnom time -
titles and zastavki - generally not
nA delat nor anything except Amigi.
What nA IBM PC proschityvaetsya
chasami, a zatem one kadru
zapisyvaetsya nA video nA Amige
delaetsya for 20 minutes,
and this time is spent purely nA
creativity, a then in realnom
time video or written nA
goes straight into the ether. A trehmernaya
grafika? There's nothing better Amigovskogo Real3D! And
reconcile 3d studio with him sravnyatsya! Raschet passage of
light rays (Raytracing) can poluchat
fantasticheskie of their realizmu izobrazheniya, almost
indistinguishable from fotografy. Gospoda adherents of IBM and
Macintosh can vozrazit: "y nas is good
izdatelskie system ... "Yea,
sistema QuarkXPress really neplohaya, a now Adobe PageMaker 6.0
under Windows95 - utter shit. But what would you skazali about
takuyu izdatelskuyu system kotoraya sochetala would in itself
All Reference Property QuarkXPress, CorelDraw, Adobe
Illustrator, podderzhivala would systemwide makroyazyk allowing
obmenivatsya dannymi other programmami and
byla would still neogranichenno rasshiryaemoy za by external
modules? A nA here Amige takaya sistema nazyvaetsya PageStream
and its raznye Version vypuskayutsya azh 1988 Year period! I
snachala opasalsya polzovatsya PageStream, but zatem understood
all its charm and easy "Zabolel" to them. Eta sistema
podverglas on my part to complete and meticulous testirovaniyu
up vyvoda ready to film for
follow pechati. And now I
I fully pravom skazat: none
nA one platforme nothing
better for izdatelskoy activity than PageStream 3.0i
for Amigi. About this system can be
rasskazyvat very long, ona
zasluzhivaet separate book. Nadeyus I udastsya shortly
zanyatsya its napisaniem. Here takoe vkrattse my opinion on two
sravnenii platform. I do not pretend nA zvanie programmista I
only polzovatel, "user". And my opinion about Amige - an
opinion polzovatelya. Programmist nA my place stal would pisat
the true mnogozadachnosti, about Autoconfig - Protocol on the
free used registrah protsessora about razgruzhennosti
protsessora zadach of I / O and other delights Amigi from his
point view. Ostavim these rassuzhdeniya
programmistam. We do, "users",
see only what lies nA
surface - prikladnye programmy, windows, buttons, menus,
everything that rabotu nA Amige prevraschaet of heavy truda in
pure creativity. I have already decided
for themselves, kakoy computer vybrat. A what you, dear
chitatel? Decided to be, "HOW all ', then is otdat preference
agoniziruyuschey platforme? After IBM-compatible computers
otmirayut across the globe their prodazhi padayut (except
Russia). Not okazatsya would have razbitogo koryta ... A If you
are an all-taki vybiraete IBM, Well-Well! Poezzhayte nA its
parovoze, rummage in lopatoy angle, a i, Amiga user, I will
proletat nad vami in komfortabelnom samolete and posmeivatsya.
