 Thank you for the Reanimator anecdote!

 The clerk calls the repair bureau.
 -I bought a computer from you with a guarantee, and I have one
 the part is broken.
 -What kind of detail is this?
 - Stand for glass.
 -??? What nonsense, this is not included in the package.
 -And I haveThere is.
 - It can’t be, what the hell is it even written there?
 -4X

 By the way, there is a proposal for a joke competition. Once every
 a special issue could be done for a week. Call
 mail files - FOR_NEXT on FTL BBS or #1.01nxt on MECONG
 and HAMER BBS.

 A curious detail from hardware for Amiga. As is known, for
 upgrade uses various additional processors:
 68000 (native), 68030, 68040, 68060. Amiga1200 from 68030 to
 The test runs 80 times faster than the A600. Newer
 Coprocessor modifications speed up the car even more. Winning
 is obtained both by increasing the clock frequency and by
 _technology_ account.  Improvement of the 68040 processor
 came down, for example, to... _exclusion from the command system of one
 teams_.   68060 is already missing several commands.
 Of course, it's not that simple. Imagine, for example, that
 it was, if you take 1 command from the Z80 and throw it away, for example,
 RLA... In short, of course, it was taken into account that this
 the "unnecessary" command is replaced by several others
 existing teams.  That's why it's a RISC processor
 (processor with a reduced instruction set). True, given
 bloat, it greatly affected the compatibility of the software...
 But not everything is so gloomy. Most recently for Amiga1200+68040
 releasedPentium emulator, albeit with a frequency of 20 MHz.

                          News of the day
                          -----------
 Today a meeting of corporation employees took place in the forest
 Zx-Legion.  Almost all the legionnaires were present, as well as
 specially invited persons, including Tornado,
 P. Nedelin, McMaker, Wolfsoft, and of course personally
 S.Sturm.  The meeting was held under the slogan: “Legion-strength!”
 We regretted that Docent was not there, who went to the potatoes and
 didn't return last Wednesday. Some legionnaires lost
 each other in the forest after the event.

 It is safe to say that Lprint18 today is not
 will come out.  And also tomorrow. And in general, Lprint may not come out
 this week and will be released as a double issue next week.  A
 in the next Lprint, read an interview with someone who drank beer
 Tankard!

 Energy #8.5 is out. Fans can contact S.Sturm.

 It may be possible to restore SpF #23, although there is a possibility
 this is quite small.  The point is that, in some ways
 According to this, disks with SpF #23 are owned by Zhora and Spectr
 screw up in different ways and it is quite possible to make one out of 2.

 Doc today expressed concern that ZxNet is fighting back
 he already has few buyers. Apparently
 gold purchases are currently lessmore profitable than selling
 TR-DOS.  And the cost of one disk with programs has already increased
 up to 40 thousand. I wonder how much Zx-Format will cost?

 As it became known, there is no news on the r/r "Zhdanovichi" and
 didn't appear. However, it seems traders managed to reach an agreement
 and in the near future something new will appear. Zhora succeeded
 sell the new software to Delt, and Spectr decided, obviously,
 change the editor's role and sell everything new to Doc.

 The sale of Technodrom has started in Brest. Game done
 at the highest level and fundamentally different from
 demo versions.   The full version of the game is
 combination of sophisticated Laser Squad with Nether Earth and UFO
 2!  Information has been received that Technodrom has already appeared in
 Minsk.
