It's not just the MCCx name. Sure it has some influence, but it's also the
best opportunity yet for an MSX webzine.

Someone (Erik Smit?) tried to start an MSX webzine a couple of years ago,
but at that time there were far fewer people on the net and there were more
paper and disk magazines around.

Is the medium (paper, disk, web) important? I think it is.
- A web magazine can reach people in more countries.
- Free distribution is possible.
- On a good monitor, it is almost as readable as paper.
- You can add URLs referring to more detailed information on subjects
mentioned in articles.
- You can include inline GFX easily.
- You can include files easily.
- New features are possible, like the discussion thing I mentioned in
another mail.
