Yeah, yeah, of course... But...
1) When will there be a final prototype?
2) And then... What about the release date of the first series?
(All this without thinking on the price -low, as it seems-)
Hei! I'm not at all related to this project. I don't have any kind of
information, only that some
Hi!
What happened to the MSX380 project?
The project (at least my one) is _very_paused_ because the guy who
worked with me (hardware/PLD/PCB design) now works not in Moscow but
in Geneve :-(. Until I find somebody who can substitute him, there will
be no work on this project.

If it is not compatible, then you wont be able to run old msx programs like
msx-dos and assemblers. One of the supposed advantages of the z380

That was an idea I wrote about a while ago too (but then in comp.sys.msx???)
Anyway, I think the instructions are compatible, for most
Yeah, I already knew that... 4 banks of shadow-registers and IX and IY can
also be swapped.
Bu err... I kinda like my conventional limit of AF, AF', BC, BC', DE, DE',
HL, HL', IX and IY (and IR, PC and SP).
Actually that IS your limit. It's not just 4 banks of shadow-registers,
it's 4 banks of
the System ROM
BTW I've never used the ADD with -2 tricks in my onw code, but I know that
some did. So compatibility is not garanted if we do not take care of this
kind of problem.

Think of the possibilities with such a powerful chip. I think you could
even program in C or Pascal without being too slow now. That may even
attract new programmers!
Yes! This is a very important point! Lazy programmers like me will do
something good with a C compiler! ;)
Heh, you could even
Anyway, let me just say this: Any and all hardware development for MSX
should be applauded, even if its usefulness can be argued. And in the case
of Z380, I can't think of A SINGLE disadvantage!

The (email-)adress of Rinus Stoker???
Rinus doesn't have e-mail. E-mail for Totally Chaos (makers of the Info blad)

I'll see if I can get it
No, wait. I _have_ got the email-adress of the designer of

I'm correct.
Wrong
I recently got a message from him that he has changed his

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.
That's what I am trying to say, Mr.

Programs of other MSX can be only for starting. After that,

Hi All,
I asked Egor some questions about MSX380 that may be interesting for
some other MSX'ers. So here is a forward of his replay:
