Maar als je op msx gaat kijken wat er allemaal aan een
dinplug gekoppeld kan worden (weliswaar ook verschillende,
maar toch: cassette, verschillende video-uitgangen,
midi-aansluitingen)
Ook hier is het dus gemakkelijk om foutewn te maken. En het
is net wat je zegt: Als er fouten gemaakt kunnen worden kun
je er donder op zeggen dat het gebeurt. Heette die vent niet
Murphy die dit bedacht?
