         How I started ...

(C) 1997 Vic
________________________________


   The first time I saw a computer
close to his uncle at work in 1989
year. It was a good old-fashioned
ES1840, which is now and remember something funny, but then it 
was thing, which I for the first time and

"Played into the computer, and my first game was a Digger!!! 
From this since I wanted to fuck

such happiness in his own house. But
Then I realized that the computer will have to do ES1840 and I
I will not do with any help (I
and now would not have done :-)). In
this time I first saw the scheme
computer magazine for UT
skilful hands "(the name is what,
aaa !!!). Then he was devoted to
the whole issue of the journal and in addition the scheme there 
was still enough information about his work. That's when I am 
truly interested and digital technology, but sixth grade, no 
matter how I tried, but so many things to understand and not

smog. And here came to the rescue
The same uncle who had ESka. After a relatively short period of 
uncertainty it advised to do Speccy (although

I was then all hands was a
"The Specialist").

   And soon I get Kharkiv 48K.Naskolko I did
I remember, he was terribly buggy at the slightest blow on the 
table or the inclusion of any switch in

apartment, but in spite of all the prerequisites I have 
interest in him is absolutely not disappeared, and even very 
increased. And started all sorts of Experiments ... Eventually, 
I made it far more robust in

work, but until that time has passed,
I have a poster on the wall is gradually filled with burnt 
processors. After all this really wanted to pick up the drive, 
but then prices are was relatively expensive, and I

had to wait somewhere six months prior to this amazing moment.

   Slightly trailed with this
steepness of the local scale and reviewing all the bend at 48 
kilobytes, I could no longer tolerate that more and more I 
began to say "Sorry, 128 only" or "Go to shop and buy AY ". And 
then I the first time in Kharkov pritopal radiobalku (then it 
was Beam with a capital letter), where

met with a man who
traded in various schemes to
Speccy (now that guy all
known under the name V.M.G. - One
of the top apparatchiks on Speccy).

  Expand the memory up to 128K and picked AY, I seriously 
thought, and that there is a program GENS and where it could be 
apply. Just at this moment I and began gradually to engage in

assembler (Busick, I was already
knew quite well). And the first
idea was to write your own DOS for example, MSDOS. I even
Busick on before trying to figure chtoto :-). But serious
work began with the Anglo-Russian
vocabulary (when I was in the tenth
class - and therefore the dictionary file
called 10FORM.V). Gradually
I learned more and more
at the same time making sure that the best thing I have 
obtained various sistemschina, not Demos there are different. I 
think it is explained by a fairly good

knowledge of hardware features
computer, which I had already managed to acquire. And now
in this time and appears
a crazy idea to connect the modem.
But this is the beginning of another story ...
