MSX HARDWARE LIST
Last updated: see the FAQ's log
This version is especially edited for The Ultimate MSX FAQ by TRD & Manuel
Bilderbeek with permission from (and in cooperation with) Alex Wulms.
The hardware list is maintained by
Alex Wulms and Manuel Bilderbeek, so any contribution to this list should be
sent to one of us (except images: only to Manuel). Click
here to go to the
original hardware list of Alex Wulms.
Alex and I have made an agreement to pass all changes and additions to each
other. So recently he totally updated his version and now the two (or three)
versions should be the same.
A large part of this MSX hardware list is collected by
Olivier Hustin.
Another large part is collected by
Eduardo Loos.
Please note that this list does not pretend to be complete. Please mail any
supplementary information to Manuel or Alex Wulms. If you have any pictures of hardware listed here then mail it to
Manuel or upload them directly to
FUNet.
