Neither of us was saying that. In fact, the message explicitely said we had
no opinion on what made a real MSX'er!
Besides this, you wrote in another message that nobody could assure you
that if you buy a turboR from japan that it'll work for the next 20 years.
Well, NOBODY can assure you that with ANYTHING you buy! Guarantees usually
only last 1 to 3 years or sometimes only a few months.
And if you buy something from another country, that doesn't mean you have
to GO THERE. And if it breaks down, there's hardware enthusiasts that can
probably help you in your country too.
As I've said, I respect your choice to use an emulator in stead of the real
things, but fact is emulators are currently far inferior to the real thing
and your arguments to prefer it above a real MSX are weak.
I suggest this argument being closed, although I want to react to one last
thing:

May I remind you that YOU are the one that started this 'fight' and that
YOU are the one that's replying to every single message with the same
arguments over and over?
Maybe I'll use an emulator one day too, if AND ONLY IF emulators have
matured into a real alternative to my turboR and it has broken down.
Anyway, do feel welcome in the MSX scene. I for one was very happy to see
one of the old-school people be 'active' again!
