Relax, guys. And you shouldn’t criticize what you haven’t seen. Or
we saw it with our lamer friends.

No.

Honestly, your answers are so technically illiterate that you don’t even want to answer them.

I already answered this question (why _users_ don’t leave Spectrum, and won’t leave for a very
long time) I already answered - they don’t have money. I can argue if the previous
letter does not convince.

Can I ask an indiscreet question - are you by any chance 15-18 years old? :))
AL> Have you actually seen anything other than the PC????
I, for example, have seen it. I've seen so much that you can hardly even dream of it.

This is a sensible idea. If the Sprinter costs the same as the average PC, imho then
those who have the money for it will be more likely to buy a PC. This is not only my imho, this is
the result of communication with many spektrumists on the radio market and the result of
observations.
How many _you_ _personally_ know who really _can_, without dying of
hunger, buy themselves a decent car, but they still haven’t done it?

As educational information for you, I also trade on the radio market, but
only there is a _small_ difference, since my radio market is in Moscow, and
there will be a lot more people there!!!

I know a lot of people who have a Speckie and something else, but spend most of their time on the Spectrum
!!!

Damn, users _don’t care_ about the machine’s resources. Users want to play with beautiful toys (a lot), and preferably for free. If Spectrum now had as much
software as, for example, on a PC, and this software would be of approximately the same quality -
the number of users on Spectrum would only grow.

I'm happy for you. Just clarify - what exactly is the difference? How many people are _already_
really ready to buy a Sprinter, at what maximum price? (I think it will be for Peters
company tooинтересно)
