The newspaper returns after a hiatus featuring a review of recent scene zines and releases alongside an in-depth critique of six entries from the 'Your Game 2002' contest. Programming and hardware sections offer practical Z80 techniques including recursive text output, floppy drive routines, a comparison of TR-DOS, BASIC, and IS-DOS, and an analysis of CPU machine cycles. Further discussions compare Real Commander against Quick Commander, examine hardware limitations driving users away, and review demos from the Cafe 2002 party. Retrospective and general interest topics highlight the history of Lviv Spectrum clones, ZX website roundups, the global Echelon network, and Tunguska event theories.
