Yes, yes, yes and yes again! I again want to touch this
topical issue. how much has already been on this article,
notes and just talk, but the problem is urgent, and to this day,
and I'm sure that while the Spectrum is alive, "she" will remain
problem. on how the problem would be great - I do not know, but
and hardly anyone at all of us know ...

freaks are trying to break us ...

the whole essence of the problem is that HRC is so Vielle in our
everyday life that we believe as a matter of
course. only a lucky few can say that
They do not have access to the Internet, they do not know what 
the conversion graphics with the PC in the end what the HRC as 
a whole! they fully connected with the Spectrum, and no PC in 
their life roles are not play. Oh, how I envy them!


pisishniki disguised spektrumistov ...

after eating to peer a little deeper, then the PC selects 
chrezvychyno many time! However, when you sit on the Internet 
could be with success to spend on useful work for the Spectrum 
... but now it has become fashionable to "combine business with 
pleasure" - pisyuke play and work his pleasure at Speck. and

work on the zx is given, does far less time than
"Free vacation." Again, the question arises: why do people
want to play on the PC and not on the Spectrum? not really, it 
was so unreal? may be so, because now faces yet another

problem - gamedev. no one has any desire to write
global games, such as black crows, last hero, mirror. y
people simply do not have the enthusiasm that was before ... 
however I'm a little distracted ...


breathing alien bodies closer and closer ...

In his interview (heresy 8) pheel said that fanaticism is not
to which no good arguments. Yes, maybe so, but because if
think about it, then Spectrum largely rests
only the fanatics, enthusiasts, for whom work on
Spectrum is a kind of hobby, so to speak in entertainment
spare time. buy PCs in our time, very simply, because
that only the true fans of their case may, with the HRC, to 
create something for the home Speccy, and no megahertz they are 
not hindrance.


I feel like those hands are drawn to us ...

again same problem - the influx of new, young forces in the zx.
old go ... and the young do not come - so you can
characterize our situation today. influx of young forces
extremely small, in protivives this outflow and the young and
old forces Spectrum brotherhood is so great that even
wonder: where does the new forces come from?! less and
less out of new programs - people just do not see any point in
their issue: financial support they receive from it is not, and
one of moral support is often not enough.

and this rotten smell is already with us ...

Some propose to merge to create a joint
projects. more people, the easier it will do this or
a project. Again, experience shows that sometimes the number of
people do not strongly affect the quality of work, even though 
the project, which makes a lot of people will come much faster 
than if it did any one group.


HRC takes the best of us ... but did not give me!

Someone said that the Spectrum - a machine, not for making
money. all this nonsense! This ideology has come to us over the 
years, and this must be corrected. will not be a normal life 
Spectrum, while the people understands that for the good things 
you have to pay. Yes, yes, pay! people, why, I ask you, nobody, 
absolutely nobody paid for the real commander 2. 0? because it 
is the best commander in dany moment! not really something you 
so desire, to rs for all scored!? if you ask: what are you 
better? I'll tell you: we are within two weeks, developed by 
the entire group of Chiriqui, and have sent money. Yes, yes, 
and then odinikoe name - sergey sharov - it's me: risk / o. c. 
a., and the other people - this is only the authors of the 
plugins that got rc free. Gee, damn ...


but we are less and less ...

on the PCs, of course, the situation is not much better, but 
still there the authors software poluchyut profits, profits 
which pushes them to further work on the project.

we have the same with this situation until tight. people are 
not willing to spend money only because they know that 
everything ever appear in khalyavnykh form. sad of course, but 
the facts are undeniable ... 

brother, spektrumist, where are you?!

And here's another problem, the problem is very serious: a 
gradual Eradication of real Spectrum. fewer and fewer and fewer

This Itin relics of humanity - this Spectrum. people
many people are moving to emulators. causes
different: the failure of companies, just tired of this "trash" 
is place and so on. But the outcome is one - is gradually 
becoming a Spectrum emulsion platform, which in my opinion is 
terrible. PCs in this If it becomes an indispensable platform 
for rabory spektrumista.

the only people who I can understand that they are working on
emulators - it's gfx maker'y: the quality of their work depends 
only on their professionalism, and I can understand those 
people who kakimto reasons can not buy a real Spectrum. all I 
think the rest just propagandists mi. 

yeah, sure, difficult situation on the scene ...

Summarizing all the above, I want to say: people,
brothers, spektrumisty, support your favorite platform, not
only in word but in deed, and believe me, you will then also by
very warm at heart ...
