Handle: Blaze Group(s): Appendix+Floppy+Nah-Kolor Age: 18 Occupation: Swapper, packmaker, organizer of Nah-Kolor. What utilities do you use the most? (Name 3 of them!) - File Master 2.202, Ced 3.5, Asmone 1.20 (Yep, it's true unfortunately ;) How long have you been on the scene? - Two years and three months. What do you think of the scene today? - It's getting smaller and smaller every day, but i don't care at all! In my opinion the scene could be as tiny as hell, as long as it featured loyal amiga users and scene maniacs who aren't about to drop the scene because of some pitty reasons like problems at home or a hd or two crashing ;). Productions are getting better and better by the minute, and especially the new demos are in most cases very interesting. However, I still think that the best years for demos were during 1994-1995. Do you think the scene has a future at all? - Yes, why not? As I said, real scene maniacs who loves the amiga will stay forever with their friends! At least I hope so! ;) What do you think will become of the Amiga? (What do you think of it's future?) - The Amiga hasn't got any real future at all. Even the powerpc's cards couldn't do anything for our beloved computer after all those years of silence. It's really a shame to say, but since the PC has got the greatest software and the greatest hardware, Amiga, for which hasn't been released anything professional for months, is most probably going to lose the fight. However there ARE things that could make things look brighter... Yes, the graphics cards for example. But they are very expensive, and secondly there exists a lot cheaper devices on the PC! It's really sad to admit, but when it comes to hardware, the Amiga is the definitive loser! This also goes for utilites and games, but perhaps in a somewhat smaller degree, because there are still some nice new games being released all the time! But before I end this answer, I would like to say that I will never drop the Amiga! I simply love this computer, so why should I do it? Because of lack og programs or hardware? No, that's not an important factor enough! ;) If you were the boss of Amiga International, what would you do? - Give away lot's of Amigas! ;) If you were the boss of Microsoft, what would you do? - Make another version of 'Windows'. It would kill the peecee for sure! He he he... If you had a gun in your hand, and Bill Gates was standing next to you, what the HELL would you do? - I don't like the violence at all, so i would give the gun to old Bill. I wonder what he would have done to me after that?!? He he. Remember: 'Fuck the violence!' as a nice polish band named Acid Drinkers once sang... Name three sceners you think will become BIG soon: - Klod/Nah-Kolor ;), Azzaro/Mawi and PickPoke/Floppy+Scum - His pictures really kick ass, but most sceners don't know about this! He he... And finally; what do you think of Retro? :) - Nice magazine, especially since it's the first issue and all! I hope that in forth-coming issues there will be some more articles. 'Retro' could really kick some ass in the future!
