This morning i heard that some days ago, Jan Smit has sadly passed away.
Jan was a great Dutch msx-scene guy.

he was extremely kind and hospitable (n the 90's I was hosted in his house for several days).
I will always keep a great memory of him..
R.I.P.

Yes Covid 19. Fuck it.
Jan was one of my best friends. Thanks to him I came in Holland several times. His hospitality was simply GREAT. Jan was an incredible person, full of love for the world. I really am sad since days.... I lost one of my best real friends...

The name of JAn in the MSX scene was "Snout". He took part of a crew-coders, but I don't remember the name of the crew. If somebody of the MSXicians can remember it, please, write it here. Thank you.
