>I simply don't believe that story from Kazuhiko Nishi. Why after 17 years >would this story emerge... It's a nice story, but I don't believe it. The story was published in a serious Japanese business magazine in 1997 (so it's not after 17 years) and besides, what could Nishi probably aim at by making up such a story? The fact as I see it is, that the Japanese just have their own meaning for the 'MSX' abbreviation. The occidental one is MicroSoft blahblah and the Japanese one is Matsushita etc. Rieks. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com **** MSX Mailinglist.
