A few words about the contents of the magazine. The material is varied, but, in my opinion, PL#4 slightly incomplete. More precisely, not for- is finished ideologically and morally. No generalizing assessments, no clear kommehta- pueb to some sensitive topics, raise- written by the authors of materials or letters that Some would indicate the editorial point of view tions. Don't consider me a critic who I’ve already “even found fault with this.” No, I I'm just trying to convey in words what remained in my soul after reading magazine... ...Some semblance of emptiness... Yes, namely emptiness... I re- I read PL,because it seemed to me that I couldn’t catch something, something get together... But then I realized - PL not enough melts his opinion, his thoughts, which some might be complementary or final... Of course, materials magazines are chargedPOSITIVELY. No nick- any offensive phrases, comments, anyone. It is clear that the author, so as not to offend anyone, statements - walked very, very carefully. Where, ka- It would be interesting, and it is necessary to make a remark, you-say your own opinion, criticize tick, he chose to remain silent... On- true, this is the main... Disadvantage or dignity - it’s not for me to judge... IzhNews#0E ------------ (C) Brutal Creators & POS-WT To be honest, I didn’t expect such an op- patubhoctu from the publishers of IzhNews. Gase- one that practically no longer distinguishes Xia left the magazine once again c quite a voluminous baggage of materials. IzhNews is the publication that I c I really enjoyed reading it from cover to the core." Once again I was amazed by the artistic military skill Survivor, which c with its inherent delicacy can beautifully “write out” any flaws so that argu- cops in defense, whether they are expressed not in the same style will seeminsolvent a lot of "baby talk". Good, high quality, but still in largely subjective reviews fromNovis also left an excellent impression. True, the Destroyer is somewhat outdated, so as at the time of the release ofIzhNews,already long ago but walked on the network ZXTime#12, and Novis I only remembered ZXTime#10. As for - Xia material about Cafe'2k2 (zxt#10) - frame I have no more strength to go in... In general, IzhNews continues to remain to become the best Spectrum newspaper. A newspaper that time has not spoiled, The same cannot be said about other “grands”. But there were some glitches... And what can go wrong in a newspaper? :) Naturally but, a leaflet that somehowinadequate responds to keys pressed (press "8" - in most cases, still omitted I go down a line, but often fall out I go into the main menu, then it starts loading music, then some other surprise (somehow unloading)). In general, there is still something to work on...

is expressed very boldly, even a daring, radical approach to most of the topics, as well as very un- standard spelling that does not express illiteracy of the authors, and expanding range of feelings they wanted to live in words, phrases or sentences. However, to be honest, for me personally FullPull does not cause much interest - I look through it only for writing review... Adventurer #14 ---------------- (C) CyberPunksUnity The most anticipated project of the year is not raised the hopes of the reading public. A couple of tons feces and several kilograms of explosives successfully completed their task, scattering a little bit of crap in each Spectrum - sky house. Yes, this is me now and about material- le, claiming the status of review-analyst Litichsky about the problems of Spectrum press.Arrogant, grumpy, somewhere even with the chauvinistic scent of “review” make you think about objectivity author, who clearly exaggerates what he sees the “cons” given to them (some of which ryh, getting out from under the “influence” of this low- sample material, it is quite possible to accept for the "pros"). "Father's" instructions you- call a vomiting reaction and a mass of arpeccub- no obscene expressions... And, believe me, those, I was not at all offended by the opinion aboutZX- Time, and the next "Chasm's VISION" blue- kacckoroPromised Land, where the author is simply showed its inconsistency as an ana- lyticist, which, apparently, he considers himself melts. The conclusion given after the opinion about magazine - offensive to everyone ykpau- This is an assumption based, perhaps, on the perverted pre- statements about Ukraine and Ukrainians. Author, publishing such a bold assumption At the very least, he offended a lot of people. Doesn't he risk becoming a spektrumists the same as he is for many Russians Raver? Or maybe he too will he say that this is all a joke? Aboutthe rest. Previously the shell was better, but this one is, first of all, unreadable, secondly - bulky and poorly managed - ma. Bilingualism is a wonderful moment, but hardly with such great conceit Adventurer will be able to claim international national status. Materials are not bad, but neccumuctu- chemically critical subjective assessment spoils the whole impression. Separately I don’t want to cover something - all authors They will equally spit on all sorts of opinions and arguments. They explain this by saying that “everything was done for the sake of bya". What was boiling - he expressed everything. It's arrived summary time. In general, I personally was very disappointed by changes in both beliefs, so in the design of the once BEST and sa- the most expected, beloved Adventurer. I'm afraid that there are already numbers like before it won't... Unfortunately... KrNews#16 ----------- Is it really new KrNews?!! Yes, exactly KrNews! True, I am the authors of this issue I can’t determine because none of them articles are not signed (!). The number was small in volume, but Overall the impression was positive. nom. ReviewParadox - the highest quality ny (in comparison, for example, with DonNews) - I read it with great pleasure. As for the remaining materials (Co- ding and Iron) - for myself personally, I in- pechoro didn't find anything, but I'm sure that For some, everything stated there will be... useful.

Environmentally friendly. Здесь и Thanks for the snow and ice ОС, snowflake snowflake, вin particular story about original use macros (Vitamin) as a kind of springboard to switch to _UN_higher languages level. Everything else is no less interesting - but, after all, Alco it is also in AfricaAlco :). True, the evidence is in the article about taking the square root, in my opinion, redundant. It turned out to be very useful rial for iron, something my father drew- kicked from there and will probably implement. In general, an excellent number, not suitable no comparison with the previous ones. C the arrival of new people to the editorial staff, the publication began to develop into a “correct” "nom" direction (in my, subjective, understanding, of course). Quick commander v2.8 ---------------------- (C) Specter/OB The main and, in my opinion, the main and importantThe biggest difference of this version is almost complete packer integration hrust2.1 c QC. Now quickyou can pack/unpack files using method hrust2.1, listen to music, read text, etc. from the packed file. It is absolutely clear thatQCis cepb- I know competition not only with modern commanders (such as RC, for example), but also programs such as BV and actually packers. True, the group packaging is missing files (as is done, for example, in Hrust2.4). This function is very useful, when it is necessary to pack a large number of files (for example, "collect" newspaper :)). SamWord v2.1 -------------- (C) Sam style New text editor, distinguished differing from all other modern editors font size (5x8), built-in support for multiple text encodings, unique formatting (that is, in addition to the usual formatting functions, it endowed with a “gift” - determines according to some other signs (described in help) of value tpobky lines, which in itself is qualitative difference from all other similar programs). However, SamWord finds begins, it seems to me, even in the early stages of development - there are interesting possibilities opportunities, but overall he loses such giants as HRW and ACE.The most basic The author’s deepest wish is to realize the sub- hyphenation support and auto-formatting one line... And of course, develop convenience and versatility! Hrust v2.4 ------------ (C) Delf/Digital Dream Creative Group Universal packer/viewer, which combined three programs at once frames - packers using the method hrust1.3/ hrust2.1 and screen packer using the method Laser Compact. Very useful when packing groups of files, for which I, for example, it and use it (quite convenient). Everything would good, but there is one annoying mistake. Poll Kempston implemented absolutely hekop- pektho, as a result of which you have to climb into the program and stuff everything in a,(#1f), etc. In all other respects - from- personal idea and excellent implementation. - - - In addition, the following programs were released: we. Next versionVideo Studio (0.7) from Vitamin. Next versions ACE (0.74)andProTracker (3.65). New version this excellent disk doctor from Budder - Rulez Doctor v1.3; and also disk utility AIDSv0.1b from AREAsoft. A game about football is also being prepared for release. (football manager) from Triumph. That seems to be it.
