# The Russians are Coming!

Andrew Lavrov and Anatoly Tishin, both from Russia, are planning to design and manufacture a very powerful Sinclair QL clone as soon as possible. The machine they have in mind will not only be able to clone the QL, but should be capable of cloning any other MC680xx-based computer as well (Atari ST, Commodore Amiga, Apple MacIntosh, etc.) without any change of hardware!
