Feedback on OBERON#4, Newspaper Loss, and PRO GRAF Demo
MAXWELL (M.B. Mineev) from Ulyanovsk thanks Max from Samara for a joint photograph, the OBERON#4 magazine, and the RGB#1 disk, noting a miscaptioned photo of LOVELY instead of MR.JOHN. He sends available issues of his ZX Spectrum electronic newspaper, describing disk failures that wiped out issues 10–12 and the ALASM-based shell. He also encloses programs from the WANTED! list along with the PRO GRAF demo, proposes visiting Samara between January 5 and 9, and inquires about FunTop98

A letter from Ulyanovsk to Samara: a ZX CD collection, a better viewer than X-COLOR, and restored newspaper issues
A damaged DEJA VU disc and a request to send it back are discussed, along with friends' reactions to the RGB AGRESSION demo and the idea of writing a more advanced viewer to replace X-COLOR. A PROGRAF demo sent to the ZX.SPECTRUM echo group is mentioned, along with a drive to gather demand for a ZX software collection on CD-ROM: there are several confirmed buyers, and prepayment, warranties, and a possible in-person meeting in Samara are discussed. Also discussed are a trip cancelled "on a whim," a request for a phone number (with instructions on how to contact a neighbor if they're away), information about recovered newspaper issues, and interest in SCENERGY magazine.
