Not. I haven't got one. Alex Ganzeveld hasn't got one (he isn't active, but
still plays games). Edwin Huisman hasn't got one (would you deny him the joy
of playing such a magnificent RPG?). Willem Cazander hasn't got one (at
least the last time I met him). And I know a lot of other people who really
haven't got a turboR.
Ofcourse there are a lot of people who DO have a turboR too. Antal v.
Kalleveen, Patriek Lesparre, hell, there are certainly a lot. But far from
all.

To me, the amount of people ENJOYING it is certainly an issue.
And I think (in case of a good game) the number of 125 decreasing to 25 is a
more realistic setting. In case of a music disk or a disk magazine, you're
probably right.

There are so many nice things which can be achieved using a MSX2!
I never programmed anything which needed the speed of a turboR. The only
thing I need speed for is assembling (doesn't involve the end user) and
decompression of archives/images. And the beauty of all these things is:
they also work on older systems!

That's not true.
