What a pity. Irony often is lost in the translation, especially when
many people so much want to believe that is is true... Even if in
their hearts, they know better.

Re-releasing the turboR could be a possible first step. After all,
development costs for it have already been made. I know a lot of
people here in the Netherlands who are sorry they didn't buy a turboR
when they were still for sale (I'm one of them).
Of course making the release of a new or a not-so-new MSX a success
will be a big marketing effort. One thing that caught our attention
and raised hopes though, was the fact that ASCII is still sponsoring
Denyu-land and even Kay Nishi himself will speak on that fair. I wish
I could visit it, but then, I probably wouldn't understand a word :-)
