18. Do you consider yourself a Stager and how do you feel about it?
"understanding" what this is in your opinion? Scene and Scener?

some kind of spiritual unity of peoplelike-minded people (in computer
relation). How bent!
19. Can you assess the state of the Stage today???

continue to create solely for their own pleasure, in
In principle, as long as there are still such enthusiasts, the scene will live!!!
2O. Have you personally attended any Parties? As a viewer either
participant? What did you like? What's not?

Liked hidden party :)
21. Is it possible to make money on the Spectrum and how?
- I doubt that the Spectrum is not a commercial project and is not used on it
you will earn money, the only successful project of ChV is unique, and such
won't happen again. In the mid-90s it was possible to sell
disks with software, make upgrades, but that time has sunk into oblivion :)

- As long as at least one person does something for the Spectrum, he will
live not only in our thoughts and memories, but also in real
life.
