Świat Gier Komputerowych
''Świat Gier Komputerowych'' (English: ''Computer Games World'') was a Polish video gaming magazine. Its first issue was released on 14 December 1992 as an addition to the Amiga magazine ''Amigowiec'' (deemed the 8-page 0th issue). The permanent editorial team consisted of about 15 people. The first editor-in-chief was Mirosław Domosud, but he was replaced by Piotr Pieńkowski, who held this position until the paper was discontinued.

2003 Disestablishments In Poland
3 (three) is a number, numeral and digit. It is the natural number following 2 and preceding 4, and is the smallest odd prime number and the only prime preceding a square number. It has religious and cultural significance in many societies. Evolution of the Arabic digit The use of three lines to denote the number 3 occurred in many writing systems, including some (like Roman and Chinese numerals) that are still in use. That was also the original representation of 3 in the Brahmic (Indian) numerical notation, its earliest forms aligned vertically.
