Hi Nemo!
:) I'll start this letter with words of apology for
previously written letter; I'm sorry
for obscene language. I'll have to belt
thread the situation and why I had to ru-
go back to the last letter.
1. I started to swear because it was over
my patience - tired of waiting for the computer...
2. Now I’ll tell you about my activities
on ZX-Spectrum and why I'm tired

Yes, I went to school, in seventh grade.
I once saw it at my school friend's place

I'm glad." I took out the cassettes, copied the games and
system, but it didn’t last very long.
Having met my best friend (those-
of course he is my best friend).
Zverev Anton, I found out that he has a

"INTER-48", but with a disk controller
rum (more precisely it was a “shovel”, not a counter-
rollerball brought by his father from
St. Petersburg) and a 5'25 disk drive.
A month later, his father bought him a radio beam
in Khabarovsk "Pentagon - 128++". Here I am
and became completely infectedSpectrum.
Having bought a controller for the radio beam, dis-
leader, music processor and new power supply
Niya, I have improved my "Leningrad"
to a more or less "computer view"6 you
Can you imagine what kind of computer it was -
motherboard + controller + AU-8910
+ PSU + disk drive + fluoroplastic harnesses
wires
I started drawing well in ART-STUDIO,
started getting interested in programming and
break programs, let alone adapt and
there is nothing to steal. But here by the year 95
128 games began to appear more and more
systems and more and more Russian programs.
You should have seen my surprise when I saw
the first release of "ZX-Formata". I realized
that I won’t “survive” for a long time on such a machine
(in the literal sense of the word). Having saved money, I

and I went to serve on the date. Thought about
Speccy never left me and I ordered

letter), I learned about new developments -

3. I started thinking about where to buy a computer
either at Scorpion or Nemo, because ra-
di market in Khabarovsk was filled with Rski and
TV - sellers of loose powder. Prescribed for myself
price list from Zonov and from you. Began fresh
price and where is which computer (in the sense of
which is better). But not only did he come from Zonov
price list, but also a bunch of papers with catalogs
gami, and even for a lot of money and for 1998.
I looked into the Scorpion company again through
INTERNET and what do I see there? advertising about
that they have low prices, etc. etc.
But Zonov miscalculated here too - ha, ha, ha.
.. The price of the motherboard remains the same

crumpling does not change), but thiseven more
than $1. So it turns out that Scorpion is expensive
the same as Pentium-133; did Zonov think where
here's the meaning:
1. You can buy the same thing cheaper from Nemo
Speccy
2. Speccy will eventually fade away anyway
3. And there are more and more owners of Rsyuks
4. On Pentyukha it’s possible and under emulsion it’s not bad
work.
So I had to order KAY for myself.
And KAY has more opportunities. The main thing
made me smarter. But more on that below. But come-
I waited a long time to receive my order and I didn’t
endured it, started composting (yes,...
just fucked up Nemo's brains) brains.
There is only one explanation for this - I’ve been sitting for three months
without Speccy, because Scorpion restore,
It's like finding a needle in a haystack. Yes
that I am in no way an “imaginary user”!
Now let's deal with LOGROS. "Send
Where did you take me" would be completely "glo-
ball." Once I ordered a price list from
You, I also received a list and prices of games
output and system programs from LOGROS:

Here is a sample list, unfortunately it is not
preserved.
At that time I was repairing my Scorpion and
so as not to waste time, I ordered

prices: in rubles, and not in conventional units

they had to send me wherever
Well, I didn’t cheat or commit a scam,
the price was really therelike this (sorry not
preserved); and where did the money go???
5. I received your previously written answer,
but later than written the second time???
:(
6. I did not confuse delivery times with Zonovs-
in no time, but was simply inattentive
when reading the price list. I will from now on
more attentive!
7. Why KAY is made smarter than Scorpion
(my opinion):
KAY compared to Scorpion and others
computers made more like a company

The disk controller is inserted into the slot,
like other peripherals, which makes it easier to re-
installation of peripherals when they fail.
The disk controller does not have RTCh chips
with fusible jumpers (not very reliable
microcircuits).
Full port compliance with Pentagon-128
(it is the fastest car on
at the moment).
Memory is faster due to
changes in faster-acting micro-
chem.
not very many buildings and naturally
less current requirement.
Good compatibility.
What I would like to see in RAY-1024.
The proprietary Speccy used a microcircuit
UL-A, which generated the video signal -
why was it faster? Note
The use of such a chip in KAY is significant
