| Did you know there is a group that sells perfectly good 4mb mappers at all

I was at Tilburg this year, but to be quite honest.. I didn't find them
there.. and I don't need 4mb.. Just something about 512kb will be fine for
me...

Of course.. But why spend money if you don't need to :-)

Yep.. But then again: Who is going to do that, converting all those files. I
don't know how to do that, so someone else muist do that. And by the time he
has finished all those programms, who says his real MSX is still working.
And again: Buying a SCSI interface for your MSX and a SCSI HD that will fit
all these programs is again quite a bit expensive...

|

Sure... But some people in this house like to watch tv while I am using my
MSX :-)
| >- debugging is really very easy using an emulator
| ok, u r rite there
|
| >- You can let your emulator run on an incredible speed
|
| yes,but only if you got a very fast computer
Is that so ? I have a P200MMX and if I put BrMSX at full speed, it runs
about 7 or 8 times the speed of a real MSX...
| >- BrMSX displays MSX games with over 30000 colurs.
|
| how bout making more software 4 gfx9000 instead of making
| msx games look better on non-msx computers
Then I would have to buy an GFX9000. Adter buying that 4 meg's of mem, a
SCSI interface, a SCSI HD, upgrading to MSX2+... I think it's a lot cheaper
to buy a PC!!!
| >- Deskspace... Not everyone has room for 2 computers...
|
| just stack 'em on top of eachother... works 4 me
You have you wide-screen tv on top of your PC-Monitor ??? Cool ! hehehe...

| now yer talkin' :)
Just as I sayd. I am very happy with my emulator, but couldn't miss my real
MSX. Both have their advantages and dis-advantages. but I also hope you
understand I am not going to spend over Dfl 1000,- to upgrade my MSX, when
there is no real need for it!
