           FAMOUS FACES FACTORY

                Krasnoyarsk


  Questions answered by Alex Legotin / Freddy Kruger / FFF.

Las: What can you tell us about your work?

FK: First of all, present all of us:

 Freddy Kruger - it's me - programmer, 23 years old.


    I have the computer: "Leningrad-1-128" + FDD + AY + 
ZX_LPRINT_III. 


  N / O as the Speccy, I do not plow as much from
May 1996, we have to work in
Emulator on the HRC:


             DX2-80/8/1.2Gb/SVGA/CD-ROM/SB-PRO: <)

 Fanat - Yuri Batenko - coder, 1921.


       Config Speccy: "Pentagon-512" + FDD + AY + COVOX + MOUSE.

 Game Master-Dmitry Kravchuk - coder, 1921.


  He had a "Pentagon-128", but it is his
burned, so that now goes to the program Fanat'u: (From my point 
of view - BEST coder at Speccy. The only thing that

prevents him from becoming famous, so it's a habit to push the 
sofa, but too lazy to make out of work in the finished objects. 
I put it in one row with Alex raiders and RST.


 Vitas - Vitali Savenkov - programmer, 21 years old.


  With "Cpektrumom" seems "tied up" completely.


             Computer: Pentium100/16/1.2Gb etc.


  This Vitas coined the name "FAMOUS FACES FACTORY".

 Chemist - Alex Tatarenko - programmer, 21 years old.


          Has an "ATM-512-Turbo2 +", and "Pentium".


  Vasya - Dmitry Romanenko - musician'gfx maker, in 1923.


                   Neto his computer!


  He also concurrently and the generator
ideas. That's all part of "F.F.F." today.

Las: And what is being undertaken by your group
what project is working?

FK: Yes, almost anything we do not do. The flourishing of "FFF"
was somewhere about two years ago. (That was
time! :). And now all this period,
when it is necessary to arrange life to seek work
etc. Therefore, for all sorts of projects is not something
that there is no time and no desire. After all,
what is going on Speccy, is freeware and is done mainly for 
altruistic motives.


Las: Well, do not tell me ... In St. Petersburg on the 
contrary, most of all manufactured software is written, based 
on some profits.


FK: So then - Peter, and this - Krasnoyarsk.
Maybe you bought the program, while
us - no. At the Krasnoyarsk radio market is already
long time no Speccy, everywhere reigns PC. And the normal 
Spectrum we did not get it. That model that we can still be 
bought - it's hurt "waitovaya, not more than 65,000 cycles

pulls. Better than anywhere in Moscow or
in St. Petersburg to buy the normal Pentagon.


  ... Therefore, if someone finds a thread
inspiration, what a thread and you will. So
for example, recently appeared "3F-COPY" -
potrekovaya copier for all models
Speccy (by Game Master and Fanat). It is assumed that he must 
work with additional memory on the ATM-512, PROFI-512 1024, 
PENTAGON-128, 512, and, of course, SCORPION-256. A tested it 
only on the PENTAGON-128, 512 (well, we have no other models 
Spectrum !!!!!!!!!) 

Las: Are you going to put anything
on ENLIGHT'97?

FK: Yes, of course! As I guess, called the case would be 
modest: "ABSOLUTE MEGADEMO ". At ENLIGHT, hope we have enough 
money. Well, if anything, expect a visit :) I hope us FLASH'em 
you places enough. Now Fanat Game Master and prepared to 
ENLIGHTu, Fanat, moreover, is breaking his head over the game 
"SCORCHED EARTH" (coming soon), Vasya occasionally wrote music 
for IBM. And I wrote a play "The Wizard of

Oz and I think anyone would give it to distribute ...

(Editor's note: the demo version of the game - in
annex to the News)

FK: Well, sort of, and all I can tell you about our group.
