| Ever tried a harddisk on MSX? I have 1GB of diskspace on my MSX... I can
only
| dream to have it ever filled! I play all Konami's and most megaROMs from
| harddisk... Quite great actually!
Sure.. But what about all those boot-sector games ?
| Is not something that can NOT be done with MSX, but I admit: it's quite
| impossible to get an RGB monitor bigger that 13". I know someone with 21"
RGB
| monitors though... (BUdt he won't sell them...)
Maybe you should look a bit nice to him :-)... You could try to buy a
scandoubler (used for the amiga) and hook it up to the RGB port of your
MSX.. THis should double the output frequence, hence making it possible to
hook your MSX up to a CGA monitor... Maybe it's worth the try ?
| Do you still program then? And with an emulator you're never sure if your
| program fucks up, or the emulator fucks up.
Just use BrMSX....
| True, if your PC is fast enough. 7MHz on MSX helps though. (Ok, not as
much as
| an emulator on a Sparc HPC-10000)
As Ricardo already said... BrMSX wel get 24 times the speed of a real MSX on
a P233MMX....
| What's the use? MSX2 doesn't HAVE more than about 1750 colours (with
| Interlacing tricks)
By interpolating the next colours. Nemesis II really looks nice when played
under BrMSX.. You should really try it once !

|
| Wow! ;-)
|
| > -THere are still lotsa programs that don't work on an emulator
| > -FM-PAC sounds better on my MSX then in any emulator
|
| And what about MSX Audio? Moonsound?
THat also goes for those, and the SCC+ aswell...
|
| > -Our own FDD#2 doesn't work on ANY emulator !
|
| Heheheh... What about Almost Real? Unknow Reality? Etcetera?
And probably 100's of programs more.... But I also know that some
games/demo's won't run on certain real MSX's either due to memort
configuration problems, etc..
| Why don't you ask Hans Oranje to build in 1 MB of SIMM memory in your MSX?
I ahve been thinking of that as well, and maybe MSX2+ as well... Just
looking up against taking that machine with me (It's almost falling
apart...)
| I don't mind talking about emu's by the way, since it can disclose many
nice
| features of MSX, and generate nice info. Which can be used by MSX
developers
| then, ofcourse... Don't like these "how to run *** in fmsx" questions
| though... (READ THE F**KING FAQ! ;-)
Indeed.. All you guys, go to:
http://www.faq.msxnet.org and read that first before asking all those
questions !!!

P.S.
I stile owe you one beer !!!
