IN DEFENSE OF UNCLE VOVA.
HELLO EVERYONE.
It's me again (Wild).

I'm sure things are like this

This article will be useful to everyone.
Everyone knows how things are with SOFT

just (!) one (!) place where you can
buy ZXSOFT. And everyone knows what he sells

VOVA. (Besides him, one more has disks

new programs, be it “toys”,
or "systems" were bought from him. And let

I like the fact that many discs are quite
coolly protected, as well as prices for ZX-HARD.
Peeples! Are you crazy? If UNCLE
VOVA will close the “shop” where we will all be
Should I take THIS?
Let's try to figure it out point by point.
PRICES
Everyone knows perfectly well that prices for wheels
It is not the seller who dictates, but time. Especially
It's become difficult now.
Everyone knows the prices for the latest soft. A
did any of you ask UNCLE VOVA, in
how much did the distribution cost him for the same
the most "MIRROR"?
I'm in no wayI don't want to say that
the authors are jacking up prices. They deserve it
reward for their work and they should
get it.
You just have to understand that all this
not so simple. Get (buy) a new one
program, buy (find somewhere else) clean
disks, make n number of copies,
print out the disk directory on a printer, with
a brief and clear description of the contents,
print on the same printer
accompanying catalog with brief
a description for each floppy disk, and then another
and try to sell when everyone wants
cheaper, or better yet, “for free”.
And if anyone thinks that UNCLE VOVA
it’s very cool to “cook on this”, then
let him try it himself and soon understand that
he was deeply mistaken.
For those for whom funds are not always available
allow you to buy a disk, there is "SECOND HAND"
("used" disks at reasonable prices). "Novie"
Of course, it doesn’t appear there right away, but
You might as well wait.
In addition, if you really want it, but money
not available at the moment, calm
any floppy disk is given on loan (provided
that the seller knows you and is confident in your
integrity).
Any damaged disc (purchased
of course here) changes without problems

used as a stand for an iron, not
stored for more than a month in an aquarium with
fish and did not fry pies on it.
DISC CONTENTS
Guys, all tastes and desires are not taken into account
perhaps. And the contents of the disks are formed
as new ones arrive (I think so).
If you don't like it, buy a whole one
disk because of one program you need - not
buy, and noroboputa with UNCLE VOVA and
tell me what exactly interests you. Via
a week he will bring you a disk with those
"systems" or "toys" that you
interested. Believe me, he hasn't told anyone yet
refused.
Some people (who have owned SPECTRUM for a long time)
must remember the company "RECLY". These guys
scattered the files on the disk so that later
it was impossible to copy anything
(go figure out which file belongs to which
applies to the program). Have you at least seen
time, so that UNCLE VOVA would do the same?
On the contrary, on EVERY disk with application
written by programs as "boot"
commander with file copy function.
ABOUTPROTECTION
Much has been said on this topic without
me in many publications except ours.
I’ll just add that if you ask
seller about how well it is protected
disk, he will answer without deception. Sometimes even
will advise which copier can bypass
this protection; if there is one.
So there is a real problem
"cooperate" with friends for some
disks, and then rewrite them from each other.
Over time, the protection is removed (as well as
as well as the price of the disc decreases).
So, as a last resort, you can simply
wait until the game starts selling
without protection.
PRICES FOR "ZX-HARD"
I won’t assure you that the hardware isn’t worth it.
expensive. Try to guess where it's from
is it taken from the seller? That's right, BUY IT,
REPAIRED AND REPEATEDLY BEFORE SALE
"RUNNING AWAY."
Everything comes with a WARRANTY (you were given
ever guarantee for an item purchased on
"flea market"? I don't).
For comparison, I will give one example (not
invented by me, but a real case,
which I witnessedbecame. Thank God
that not a participant, but just
witness).
A guy recently bought a ZX-SPECTRUM
adjacent configuration: Taganrog-128;
+ monochrome monitor, bell type.
FDD-absent, FDD controller
absent, AY-CHIP - absent, key-
atura - 40 keys. SOFT - absent.
This “pleasure” cost him 800
(!) rubles. Whereas UNCLE VOVA can
buy PENTAGON++, with "AY" and warranty
for 500.
Did you know that the first cities where
hit "BLACK RAVEN-1",this is PETER and our
is your favorite ROSTOV? (see "ZX-FORMAT #8").
Thanks to whom?
How much did it cost him?
Did he get back the money he spent?
Now tell me where you got it from "LAST
HERO of the LIGHT FORCE", "MONSTRLAND-1" and
other hits?
And think about where we'll get it from
"MONSTRLAND-2", "AWAKEN", "BLACK RAVEN-
2" ? That's right, UNCLE VOVA.
What if he stops supplying us? Who
Will one of us go to St. Petersburg, or write to the authors?You ? Hardly. I ? Never.
Have you noticed that recently appeared in
stall at UNCLE VOVA? That's right, bastard
"PC". And you and I tolerate this
"Opuskalovo"???
PEOPLE! I, WILD, DESPITE EVERYONE!
BUY SOFTWARE! DON'T PUNISH YOURSELF
YOURSELF! TODAY YOU (this refers to N.W.)
DOWNLOADED FROM THE INTERNET NEW, SHARED WITH
ME, SVS, EDIK AND ANYONE ELSE (EXCEPT
DAI VOVA), AND TOMORROW WE WILL SIMPLY HAVE NO WHERE TO BE
EVEN GATHER TO TALK.
LET'S NOT ALLOW THIS PLACE
SPECTRUM HAS SOMETHING IN THE MARKET
"calculator"!
UNCLE VOVA WILL HELP US ALL. IT'S TIME FOR US
HELP HIM.
P. S. If someone disagrees with me,
or wants to add something to the above
what has been said - you can find me on Sunday
Seinyam near the place where ZX-SOFT is sold
at UNCLE VOVA's; or write to the editor of the newspaper
you. To letters concerning this topic in our
