Hello, This is a pretty long mail, so I shall start by describing it and thus letting you know if you want to read on or not. This mail handles about joynet. I want there to be a standard protocol for communicating over joynet. In the introduction I shall talk about why and when this protocol

Hi all, I can't remember where I got this URL from, but I certainly hope it wasn't from this list ^^;;; It's not free (although no prices are mentioned), but maybe this could be a really good solution for a new MSX: http://www.cyber-labo.co.jp/vmodel_en.html (look at the VLP80 model)
