Sorry, but discussion of Sprinter or Oberon, this is correspondence on
Spectrum topics, and it is for this purpose that the echo was invented. Flame is of course a bad thing, but why not talk about the same sprinter, because sometimes in a dispute the truth is born! And Fido works in such a way that the correspondence sometimes automatically turns out to be semi-personal, but on _Spectrum_ topics! This is not realtime
chat! What do you mean by “worthy messages”??? For some reason, 90% seems worthy to me!
With respect, Alex from FFC COMPUTERS.
