Nemo> What I want to say about the Spectrum? Problem
Computerization is generally quite difficult. People,
the majority, is transplanted to ibm. This is not entirely
correct. ibm'ki need professionals and people in schools and
ordinary users, I believe Need car, though not so
powerful in terms of hardware, but
rather simple and cheap to
which people can realize themselves. Problems for professionals
in the country is not so mnogo.Pod professional, I mean
a guy who makes money.
And maybe, just now
have a good time for the Spectrum. No need to ask him
some kind of enormous power.
Power of the machine made up not
only the power of iron, but
power of the platform - the number of users and
infrastructure. To Spectrum
It is, moreover, it is Russian,
What no one has any dugih machines.
As for future plans? Plans, of course, is,
but there are problems. The problem,
like everyone, with the money of course. Problems as well with
the fact that people who are supposed to oblige
this topic is now engaged in other things. Everybody wants fast
money, but here it is unacceptable.
However, you can work right now. And we are working. When
I say "we" I mean not
only themselves, because one
man, the producer or company
can not exist separately
on the platform. Now it appears the moment we're trying to work
together. There is what is called corporate.
With regard to computer Kay-256
- In the car I tried to realize what may have escaped the
attention of other people in the car. Ie may be it - a new
attempt to look at the platform, such as breathe new life into
it. Now opened new perspectives. I
I can not now about this in detail
say, because question rather
technical and should be discussed
widely. But the outlook is very
large. Specifically, now seeks to move from manufacturing to
the production of handicraft shops. This is not the domain of
high technology, but at at least some intermediate stage. In
those machines, we are now releasing the wires do not exist.
This is due to nadezhnosyu system. In articles
there is a new feature - the machine can be used without the
housing. It's cheaper and easier for the end user. The design
is gradually becoming a block. Repair - block by block. Go on
the new components are now unacceptable. The creation of any
architectural innovations - too
very problematic. Main
Hope is now pinned on
system of public education.
But if the system of public education is all well indiffirentno
set, we simply miss the next chance. P.S.
I would like to add. First
just now, based on the new microprocessor, you can create a
machine that will be in power occupy a middle position between
286 and 386. Given that in our
country characterized by very high
code density, according to this parameter, we surpass all other
platform and the country, you can create a machine that will
work better quality than the ibm. I emphasize once again: on
the Spectrum 48 programs - Chess works
better than similar to 286. That
As for the OS - the OS is necessary for all and
all have to work under it.
Capacity growth without the introduction of the OS is virtually
impossible. C those facilities that we can
already provide work
no OS is impossible.
