Hi, All!
Many writers of thrillers and spy detectives should envy
some authors from the world of Spectrum. I counted at least two "black
cats in a black room".
One of them is a super-OS without a name? called by the author “my system”.
Traces of this mysterious beast were noticed in early summer (late spring?)
in the St. Petersburg echo. And since then, here and there he fans himself with his luxurious tail and smiles mysteriously, so they say to you, wait, wait, drool in anticipation ;-)
The second, elusive monster, not listed in the Zilog lists under the name
presented by the authors.
In general, there is so much mysterious fog in the magical world Spectrum.
"What is it about?" - readers will ask.
But out of harm's way I won't say it, the authors already guessed...my words to them.
"Gentlemen...in the world of technology this is not accepted...if you don't want to give any
information before the appearancethere is no need for a finished product. But why “tease” the
public with scraps of information, this is disrespect for the people ;-)

Have a good hunt everyone! Savichev Andrey V. AKA m@s


From Pavel Fedin To All 23 September 1997


hello, Michael Markowsky! I remember that on 22 Sep 97 you took it and launched
in All with this:

Unfortunately, there is such a thing. As for the name - I asked you to think something up (well, my imagination doesn’t work), but you don’t care... Now I’ve completed the ROM emulator - I’m starting to work on the code globally. But I seriously doubt whether you need it at all... No matter how much I write about it, there is no reaction... :-(
Only one person suggested something...

bye, with all the best wishes, Pavel Fedin.
