   And here is the new number of Echo. At this time we
tried to prepare a more interesting material. Now, when 
preparing this article, no one knows what volume

will be a number. It is possible that more than 1000 sectors.


   We are not afraid, not afraid and will not be afraid of 
large volumes of our publication. If there is good stuff, we 
will post it. And certainly no one will be offended.



   Hooray! Go to our letters started coming. Until
that the flow is not great, but it is growing ...


   We strive to make our paper better
electronic publications on Speccy. And to
be so we are ready to meet any reasonable requests of readers. 
E-mail us your questions. Will try to answer them. Do not be 
afraid of being branded 'lamer': ignorance due to lack of 
information-not vice. True lamerstvo is when someone

shouts that he knows everything, not really
being able to do.


   No matter who you are: a beginner or an experienced
programmer, a lover of games, circuitry.
This newspaper is for you! Please send materials. If
they will be at least a small degree of interest, we are ready 
to release them into the light.

Using the cursor, icons, 'hot'
