Yes, everybody has a PC nowadays, but I see movements in the business. I
think the time is here to introduce other systems (hard- and
software)..Linux is more popular then ever, BEOS version 4 is
released.....These are all examples of the fact that more and more people
don't like PC/Microsoft anymore.....Maybe ASCII feels the same and wants to
build a new system which is more easy to understand and to use. A machine on
which you can simply play a game, do some browsing and e-mailing and typing
a letter..The PC is very hard to keep up with, every week a new driver for
that and that card is being released, it's too difficult for the public to
keep their computer modern....

I think ASCII isn't exactly planning to continue MSX-technology....They just
stand open for the system and the way it works/worked....Maybe they can get
some inspiration from it........That would be more likely then ASCII wanting
to release MSX3.......

I agree....
