Yeah okay, I have a MSX2+ too, and actually I don't care a shit if a game
which I might make in the future is MSX2+-only (in example a
smooth-scrolling RPG). But, with a bit of thinking, this smooth scrolling
RPG can also be made possible for the MSX2...

:You seem to be a coder, don't you?
Yup, right. Anyway, I wanted to add some positive comments. All these
negative and pessimistic messages are not very encouraging the developers.
Maybe that's in fact the REAL reason for lots of these projects not to be
finished, and not the difficulty of them.

There were more Dutch (and also a few non-Dutch) people busy developing a
Z380-board and they have joined forces to make things compatible. The
Russian developers aren't really working on it anymore (and if I'm correct
they'll put the desings on the net???), and I haven't heard about those
Spanish guys much yet.
Anyway, I think the one who is first finished will have the standard for it
and the other one has to resign or adapt his project, unless its design is
much cheaper and better ofcourse. Yes, I know 'better' is very relative.

:What's their e-mail address?
Ummm... dunno if they've got email. Think not. Maybe anyone else knows???
The (email-)adress of Rinus Stoker???
No, wait. I _have_ got the email-adress of the designer of this. It's Hans
van Oranje (HPN Nederland). His emailadress is: [EMAIL PROTECTED] if
I'm correct.
:>Please, don't.
:Don't... what? :?
Well this was said in a previous message:
P.S.: If this becomes a "dialog" between you and me, I prefer to speak in
spanish. So, if nobody is interested on it, perhaps it will be a good idea
to write in spanish personally, not in the mailing list.
Well, this interests me and it would be too bad if this discussion was going
to be held in Spanish on private email...
