] AFAIK, the clockchip uses BCD for storing its info, so &H99 means decimal
] 99, not 155...
This is correct. The RTC works with a BCD format. So, the MSX2 hardware has a 
2079 problem. After that year we have to fallback to the MSX1, which does not 
have a hardware clock and can therefore not have a hardware related date 
problem. I hope I live long enough to be affected by this particular 
problem...

Kind regards,
