Interisting, but I do not completely agree this approach. In this
text it seems that cartridge slots are an obsolete feature just for
playing old ROM games, and that it is logical to made it optional in a
new MSX. But we must not forgot that cartridge slots are essential for
connecting new hardware, and thanks to it we have memory expansions,
SCSI/IDEs, MoonSounds, etc... how long could a new MSX survive without
cartridge slots?
