     Welcome into the DEJA VU # 08!


   Hello People! Finally Playgear Company give birth next 
magazin'om. You probably noticed that this number was

delayed for a month: (In connection with
this, many asked me and all of us
questions: "Like, how? such stability on a magazine and 
suddenly Periodicity ...?" Construct various assumptions, etc.

I think it's time to clarify the situation.

   This article is not entirely conventional and
will affect not only the magazine. Here I want
so as not to make a separate article to talk about the sad 
state of affairs at Spectrum platform in general ...


   The main reason for the delay was the lack of (quite a long 
time) interesting material. Of course, you can

would give up on everything by hand, fill every shit'a and 
release the magazine on time, but Who then will be needed? You 
know that This disease affects many of our electronic 
"samizdat". So why add to them another one ... 

   The second (and most objective) reason
served as a full neokupaemost our titanic work. For example, I 
am for sixth and seventh issue of the magazine has not received 
a penny>, [! And other Playgear'ovtsy too ... All this suggests 
to us some minor emotions. I will not deny that even DaniEL 
proposed to minimize the project entitled DEJA VU. I have long 
hesitated, but decided not to this way to take and throw all of 
what worked the last 2 years. Could not ... And Work on eight 
issues was done almost half. In general, it was decided to 
finish this room, and there ... and everyone there probably 
depends on you, dear readers. Only here freebie is no longer in 
sight, sorry! We initially went down the wrong path, abandoning 
the defense. But we were warned! By naively

naively hoping for at least some support to the scene, on the 
honesty and decency in against the authors, on ...


   "Nakosya, vykusi! - Said the scene in
Once again, the author showed simple shape of the three 
fingers, seeking the root of almost all the desire to do 
something useful and necessary. Yes, to hell with all of your 
empty calls for the salvation of Spectrum scene! All of it 
smells the same shit as in public toilet! I whole this fuss 
about the Speccy to the pain reminds our State Duma, where 
everything is someone all the time rush to save: And the 
people, then Russia, then economy (oh, who it is!?), Yugoslavia 
... Just do not know HOW! But it's much easier - saving 
themselves in us. And the worst thing - we all understand this 
perfectly, but it do nothing! Paradox?? Right now! Full 
I_D_I_O_T_I_Z_M! 

   Let's get together (once again) take a look
in the heart of the problem. After all, to understand -
should be studied. I did not accidentally mentioned
and the State Duma, and Russia. You will not find that
The situation in our country (assuming some simplifications) is 
somewhat similar situation, which is now on the Speccy? Would 
you like analogies? Please! I will try to express how you can

more simple and understandable ...
 1. Partial, and in some cases complete, disruption of power. 
What we see on stage? Decay of the disorganization and the same 
groups and teams, not foreboding, and usually do not lead to 
anything good.  2. Almost complete collapse of the public 
sector and private prosperity pseudo "entrepreneurship" and 
easier to say - theft. Look at us ... For example not far to 
seek: Inforkom, Condor, Iskrasoft and other manufacturers 
software and hardware for the Spectrum. Where are you? " The 
illicit trade in copyrighted software, I mean Piracy has long 
flourished and became daily routine, which deal with

sort of like and do not quite ...
 3. The so-called era of "stagnation" and following it, and, 
quite natural, global economic and financial crisis. What do we 
see? A few years relaxing yuzanya Speccy, full rasslabuha, 
pofigistkoe to the author, childhood disease "slope", the 
collapse of the platform as a whole ... continue?  4. Has 
already become chronic delay and failure to pay wages, constant 
staff turnover and transition the most prepared the masses into 
a commercial structure, the "brain drain" over the hill. We ... 
Authors of software are not have no financial support from 
users! Hence, quite rightly reluctant to do anything at all. As 
a consequence - departure from the scene or moving to other 
platforms, preferably in a commercial firm, where for their 
work they will get real pennies, not empty promises. Who comes 
and replaces the departed elite?? Young and inexperienced, who 
after working in the sweat some time and abruptly broken off, 
too blamed on the PC and Amiga! And not because

these machines are steeper, but because the Spectrum
has become a thankless platform from which
except a headache and a nervous tic nothing
not poimeesh. Another analogy? I think plenty of ...

   It's time to take a resume at all,
above. No colorful projects
No fiery calls will not help Spectrum survive, unless we change 
attitudes, especially to ourselves. It is no secret that the 
bulk, at this time working on Speccy, constitute only a rabid

fanatics of the platform, but it can not
last a long time. Nobody will Speccy but ourselves and if our
disregard for the authors (in fact
on them the platform and kept so far)
will not change for the better, then I give a guarantee that a 
couple of years we all die out, like the dinosaurs! Likewise, 
Russia will not help any currency loans and foreign investment. 
I'm wildly surprised - why is it so hard to understand 
something? But, apparently, so arranged a Russian ... So, guys,

let parestanem steal from himself out of his pocket a very 
bright future - yet there is some hope ...
