That's OK. If the MSX had been continued all this time, it would not be
the same now, but we wouldn't have feel this transition. We have changed,
the world has changed. And so would the MSX.

I wonder that too. And I'm quite optimistic. Let's wait and see.

I agree. There is one thing on what all MSX users I know agree: there is
'something' with the MSX that makes us love our computers. None of us know
exactly what it is, but it's there. We call it 'the feeling'. And I bet it
would be still there if a new MSX is released.

Strange? Why should it sound strange? This text reflect what real MSX
users feel.
