People, Some friends (all brazilians ) tell about Carchano's conversion Kits. The first model has developed in middle 87. The actual kit is a total replacement for the Expert motherboard. Then you can be a Expert (originally MSX1) converted to a MSX2+ with 4 internal slots, one SIMM 30 pin conector and optionmally DOS2, FM and SCC. (OPLL, SCC can be provided by the owner). But the best Carchano board is the ACE Project (is a project because he don't finish yet). Is a MSX board with Z80 running in 7Mhz (or more!!!), four SIMM 30 pins connectors and eight slots (1-0, 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 2-0, 2-1, 2-2 and 2-3). This board has developed to be inserted in PC cases (is the same size of a PC386 board). This board only contains Z84, PSG and PPI, the VDP (and sub-ROM) will be a cartridge and the keyboard is an Expert keyboard unit (but can be changed for use PC keyboards). I knew this board in the last Brasilia meeting.
