RE: About the new MSX: what do users think?

Don't forget there is absolutely no software for MSX anymnore (and I am not talking about the occasional game that is still developed...) If you want a new MSX to be a commercial success, you need more than new hardware, you need software companies... will Inprise, Sun, Microsoft, etc be

Hey, I think the gap is just too big to get the same feeling again, if this new MSX is released. You are in Japan now yourself, and you might have noticed (on the Tilburg fair already) that the Japanese have a total different point of view at the MSX computer. We still have fun with old,

I have plenty of japanese and korean friends, and asking if they know MSX, I've received a negative response... I think in jap/kor/eu/us it is the same... MSX is only known in a small group of enthousiasts no surprise there. M : -Original Message- : From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

(about the MSX mailing list): the discussions here are more relevant and more fun to 'real' MSX users. On news://comp.sys.msx there is mainly emulator- and offtopic-talk. True, but the mailing list is invisible for people who don't know it exists. So if we're discussing topics like the
