4 computers from 4 different brands: Spectravideo, Sony, Canon and Sanyo, but all of them comform to the very first personal computer standard, the MSX from 1983. The MSX was a standard made by design while the IBM PC was by accident.

It's quite easy for any 8bit computer from the eighties to find some sd card extension. Here with my Sony #Hitbit F700 from 1986 it's all the more interesting because the #MSDOS see the card like a dos harddrive, and is close to the MS-DOS pc version of that time. Also, you can go to http://www.pouet.net, go to the prod section, filter list with your favorite machine, and you will be able to download recent productions like this one released a few days ago. #MSX #MSX2 #demoscene #SonyHitBit . This will always be a better way to spent your evening than netflix. #retrocomputer #retrogeek

Nu isses passiert. In meinem rund 40 Jahre alten Sony #MSX ist ein Entstörkondensator geplatzt. Mit ZischBummPeng und ner Menge Rauch. Und die anderen beiden sehen auch schon schlecht aus. Und der ganze Dreck. Und Gestank.

Gut, da werd ich wohl bald den Lötkolben schwingen müssen. Seufz.
