           FREE OPINION!

     That is a lot of talk about: Spectrum collapse or not! And 
if you fall apart then if! I have my own point of view on

this problem. I would like of course to
Sunset Spectrum lasted as long as possible ...
But there is one theory of the motion
progress. Progress never stands
place, he progressively developed and quickly rushes forward 
reaching incredible heights and indicators. Prices for out of 
date product or technology are falling. Fall from new projects, 
much better the old ones. If the PC last year was worth 
800-1000 U.S. dollars, now more or less a car can be purchased 
for 500-600 USD Progress or regress is obvious. All of these 
races is valuable affect the number of spektrumistov. After

it makes sense to buy the coolest cars for not much
large sum of money, the more that prices
to it all the time fall (meaning goods eliminated from the 
production). PC Games not much better than the Spectrum, and

technical capabilities can be compared
as a Cossack with a Mercedes.

     This is one point of view. And here's another! Spectrum is 
known as a very cheap machine. And this cheap in any case

does not attract new, thirst for purchase
Speccy itself, but rather the contrary scares.
The point is really not the point. That cheapness
computer can keep him
home. So how to sell it for a large sum
either not possible or can not sell at all. Let me lie down on 
the shelf mesyatsok, then another, and suddenly one day he will 
want to steer. And if you can not buy a computer abruptly, and 
there is a desire to see yourself at the keyboard, then such a 
complex as the Spectrum is fine for this.


    The funny thing in my "opinion" is something
I am very confused in their thoughts and
because I am worn out from exams in
Institute, then neither can not seem to cause little thoughts 
in order. Yes, and my nerves get up to mischief; really want to 
blow off somebody:) 


    In general, Spectrum has become a live down, not on 
characteristics, and by the users themselves.


    Well enough to disperse. Hopefully when
I still start on such a yak, I will
General Discussion breed on a different platform and has about
other problems ...


            SPECTRUM RULEZ!
