WOW! I'd love a seat like that :)
Voodoo PC was going to offer cool gaming chairs like that one , before HP bought them out and killed them. The Voodoo (or DBox) motion chair had motors in them to move and STARTED at $14 grand Canadian. Hope you got yours for much less. :lol:Quote:

Its like this image below- rather than a single piece machine shaped like an ST, I got the one that looks like a VHS and a seperate keyboard, for its quirkiness (and size and sheer weight )
I've also splurged on a fancy megaflashrom card that has a konami SCC sound chip in. Should have another use in a ratty msx1 I got recently.
Just don't tell the mrs - at least til I tell her about her xmas present she's kindly got me :)
iain
PS forgot that zetro inspired me to look at msx in a thread a few months ago. Nice one . :)
This one resemble very much like the Brazilian Gradiente Expert (see picture). I had one for some time a few months ago.
Interesting machine, indeed. Way too infected with M$ way of life to my taste, but indeed interesting!

Ah, spiffy! Mine's an Amiga-style "all in the keyboard" model, but I do like the look of those VCR-deck MSXes. Very quirky-interesting.
Oh, I wouldn't say that. MSX-DOS is just CP/M with a more DOS-like shell, so it's more along the lines of the Digital Research way of life ;) And having an OS that uses FAT12 natively instead of one of the many, many, many proprietary home-computer filesystems is extremely convenient.Quote:

Sold it with 4 cartridges because I really don't have interest on the machine. Neat games, BTW.
You see a Brazilian page with lots of games and the machines sold on Brazilian market here:
