The issue opens with reflections on the future of the ZX Spectrum in the new millennium, challenges in software and hardware development, and ways to save the platform by uniting the community. A scene overview from the early 2000s discusses the demoscene slowdown, the fate of game projects like Awaken, and the closure of other publications. The technical section provides a schematic for connecting DRUID chip-based phone cards to the parallel port and explains their dump structure. The issue concludes with an ironic philosophical treatise on human nature and moral rebirth.
