Nah, go for a Panasonic 2+, they're relatively easy to find, relatively cheap, and they won't give you any trouble in the US when it comes to voltage/NTSC. Don't forget to buy a memory-mapper tho!

Hi

Well my preferred choice is a Sanyo Wavy but i may well have to get another msx2+ or just an msx2 If anyone catches one on an aucionering site then please give me a heads up!

Regards,

Why not a turbo R?

cos they're crap

O_O

Expensive, maybe... But pretty darn cool!

And yes, I'm working on my post-count! 2048... *sooo close*

Does this also mean you are going to stop at 2048?

No, they are not.

Hey Yo!

In my opinion the TurboR is not a real MSX - it lacks a cassette port! I was offered one but turned it down!!!

Regards

Lol... That would be funny if it wasn't so sad! The turboR is by far the best MSX ever made. I can understand you'd turn it down because they're still quite expensive, but to turn it down because "it's not a real MSX" is just, well, odd... Don't buy any other Panasonic MSX2+ either though, because those "aren't real MSX computers either" as they also lack the casette port. That does narrow down your options a little, since you'd have to find a Sony or Sanyo 2+, which are a lot less common. Perhaps you should settle for a converted MSX2 then, since those are more common.

hahahaahahahahaha,.. not the cas port thing again.. what does it matter you can get the same software on disk. I'll shoot the next person who complains about not having a cas port

Panasonic A1WX also has a casport. But why on earth would one want such a thing... Get yourself an IDE interface!

I can't understand the "cas port" -thing either... I mean, really who gives a shit? Should we also have cassette port added to the one chip msx too? Just to make it part of the msx -family.
