 SOFTWARE MARKET        
                                
Using the example of recent months
you can once again verify that
that "a holy place is not empty
it happens" - as soon as Anton disappeared
Vasiliev, how it splashed onto the market
there was a wave of toys with loading
kami from IWAMOTO and SOFTSTAR,
which by the number of bells and whistles
and the level of programming
were moving far ahead.  Some
programs from MAXa IWAMOTO and
SOFTSTAR entered our current
             review.             
It's nice to note that
Russian programmers are capable

and the toys are no worse than European ones. (I
I don’t mean IBM people - they have

completely different.) TANKDROM Copper-

amazes with the care of finishing. 
Even such frankly weak ones
programmers like THD from Moscow
threw a couple of theirs onto the market

only musical demonstrations
