About the people ...
Generally speaking, the idea to tell
Newskah pages about all a little bit of famous people from St.
Petersburg was the very first issue. But for various reasons,
such as All things to do was ...
With this issue we begin a series of articles
united in one common cycle "about the people ...". Invite all
interested to talk about themselves, about their group, and we,
in our turn, will try to get more interviews - IMHO, the
interview is much more interesting read than the article. There
is still an idea - before each interview result "statements"
about the man other celebrities or ordinary users.
The only limiting factor, or
in short, a brake on the way to interview is a lack of
editorial voice recorder ... : (If someone has any, and that
someone will agree sometimes denekdrugoy to lend us this
device, the process go several times faster.
And now - the word VIks'u ...

Hi guys! I read an article here,
in which many were mentioned, including
and our studio, and decided something clarified.
Since everything connected with us, is covered
profound mystery, formatted and Zaksor, then, accordingly, all
our activity acquires a set of fantastic rumors, one of which
you have printed and than forced me to sit down and clave. :)
So, tell all, as the spirit (yes
forgive me viKS) ...
Our studio is a great name VIKS
has been created, let pct memory was so in
1993. VIKS - are we - VI (Ilya Vasilyev) and
KS (Kostin, Sergei). Name of the group came up with Serge.
Initially, we worked and wrote in a bend CP / M-System for
Scorpion'a (to incidentally, in our opinion is the coolest
Spectrum-compatible PC.). At the same time Serge wrote the
program ferrying CP / Mfaylov with other companies on the
Scorp, and raced ...
Within a short period have been adapted to
Scorpion such elegant programs, such as:
Anglo-Russian and Russian-English dictionaries
(The fastest and most convenient - until now
since none of the existing dictionaries
System TR-DOS and Is-DOS can not compete with them in speed and
usability), the toy "President" - 100% analog original, which
was originally written in BK0010, and then partially transferred
in TR-DOS on the Speccy. All of these programs to
still sold in the Scorpion-e ...
It was at that time appeared on the market running
Is-DOS. The first versions of this system were
horrible, for those times, of course, protection
copy, and we, according to numerous
requests of our friends, have released "pirate" copyist (stupid
of course, but he worked hard and did his job).
And from that moment in our studio appeared peculiar style:
"Without protection from Copy and slightly cheaper than the
others, "for which we receive periodically head ...
But the people demanded the prog without protection, and
we are staying true to themselves, were given to all
what they want ...
A bit of sad ... Now Logros released a videotape of ENLiGHT
and costs it somewhere kilorubley 25-30 per unit. : (A
For example, we believe, and firmly believe in
that the Great Name ENLiGHTa do
money is a sin, and offer all absolutely for free, video on
ENLiGHTe which filmed ourselves! Simply bring a clean
videotape 90 or 180 min. to us in Avtovo market and somewhere
after 2 weeks, we refund you have a record. Such large
terms due to the fact that now orders the sea, and Vidic just
2. By the way say, the movie also filmed a very Logros'a
not bad, there are interviews with various sea
people otitrovki made on the Amiga, and
etc. And our magazine interview almost no just filmed
everything as it was. Captions can also be had to make sure, but
The fact that our tape was not originally shot as a commercial
material, and just for friends. In short, to judge you.
Well, a little distracted ...
Keep our history. In 1993, we
worked together, and after I was in the army, finally feeling
pretty torpid along and I radically changed outlook on life, we
split into 2 studios, while working as
and especially in close collaboration.
VIks - it's me (Ilya Vasilyev), still
something to rivet for Scorpion-a (soon, probably will release
potrekovaya copier and formatter with the support of the hard
drive) and viKS - Serge Kostin it, he bought himself and Amigu
finally ejected from Spectruma, but sorry -
frankly, was a cool coder ...
Do not confuse! Advertisements in the ZX-News Serega
(Ie viKS) does not accept, does not distract
Rights to no avail. By the way, he only stayed on the market
the program CP / M for ATM-Turbo ...
Well, when we stand together in any issue, our "VI" and "KS"
again combined into VIKS studio.
Uff, like all cleared up ...
