I really like the poem, but I disagree about it only being for nostalgic
minds. I live in Canada, and as such never had an MSX while younger. Why, my
current MSX2 is a few months older than I am! (I turn sixteen in September,
by MSX2 was built in early 1985 as best as I can tell.) I found out about
MSX when I first entered my Snatcher obsession, from playing the Sega CD
version. It was a dream come true when I was able to actually get my MSX2,
which I love much better than the PC I am using to type this. (If only I had
a hard drive, Uzix and an MSX modem, I wouldn't need a PC at all!)

Subject: An MSX poem

Hi!
I wrote this poem today, and some people told me to put it on the mailing
list. I'm not sure it is that good, but well, here it is:
MSX, you've brought us many nights
Of game and programming delight
For many years, and more, somehow,
But, MSX, where are you now?
Are you just a forgotten toy
That no-one plays with any more
Except for some nostalgic minds
While even those are hard to find?
Or is there still a spark of life,
Could MSX once again thrive
If only we would try?
But even if it has no active part
MSX is always in our heart
So it will never die!
Wynke.
