They packed the streets, they waited in anticipation for it was coming soon. They didn't know when it was coming or what it would be like -- only that it would arrive... Some camped in the fields others just lay in the road, they weren't going to miss it -- no way! Some knew all about it though. They knew nearly all about it. When it was coming, how much it would be -- they even knew it wouldn't come out of the drains, as first expected. They knew the next ZZAP! review would appear online November 7.

- There was a Soviet apparatchik, a Chinese People's Revolutionary revolutionary person and a Commodore-owner on this plane together, right? And the airline had been publishing all these self-congratulatory ads about adding seven new destinations to its schedules in the last year, in Sunday supplements, business magazines, The Independent, you know the sort of thing.
- So the Russian laughs and drains another vodka and says: 'That's nothing, friends. Call that growth? In Mother Russia, we have a three-year scheme for improved industrial efficiency that will increase tractor production by 72%!'
- The Chinese butts in: 'Sorry Lloyd Lloydovovich, you're talking through your cossack. In Peking we're already halfway through our latest seven-year plan -- not to mention a Cultural Revolution and a Great Leap Forward.' He sits back, smugly, and invites the capitalist home-computing running dog to beat that for long-range social planning.
- The Commodore-owner, who's been dozing over some minor magazine with 'CBM' in the title, has to pause to think.
- Lloyd Lloydovovich calls for another vodka and, while the Commodore-owner’s still puzzling over the question, makes some silly joke about his ROM needing a bit of perestroika. The Chinese gent's given up on the whole conversation now and starts re-educating himself out of some little red book.
- Suddenly the Commodore-owner speaks, in a slow but confident sort of way. 'Well, chaps,' he says, 'I'm afraid my country doesn't have plans in particular, but there is one objective we all look toward.'
- 'Exactly! Economic imperialism!' snorts the Chinese traveller, hardly looking up from his book.
- 'Well, actually, no,' says the Commodore-owner almost apologetically. 'All it is is that we're all jolly certain to read the next ZZAP! reviews as soon as they appear at the monitors on October 24.'
- Lloyd Lloydovovich defected...
