The article about the 'new MSX' was quite unclear (so I mean the JAPANESE
version). I think the reason is, that it involved news that was already
commonly known in Japan, whereas it was not in Europe. And in this way, it
is not so easy to bring everyone up to date by writing an article with the
length of Ikeda's.

Yes, they TRIED to, at least. I was with them to translate everything, but I
have to agree that the Sunrise-crew didn't seem to be very keen on putting
any effort in these negotiations. And about Padial - he just wanted to keep
himself far from talking with Japanese people, or something like that. He,
sort of, ran away from them. I could quite well understand why the Japanese
felt a little confused, if not, insulted.
