    So, there are about 1 zillion different MSX systems out there. What is/are your favourite(s)?

    I'm pretty sure mine is the Sanyo Wavy. It has a shape almost as cool as a keytar:

    Although not as sleek, I'd have to say this would make the ultimate land line phone:

    I LOVE KEYTARS.

    I also love that Wavy.

    I'm in the market for a MSX but I'm not sure which to get.

    the question is more, which one is the ultimate to play games on?

    and i have a side question. does someone have a plan of how to modify a (e.g.) Mega Drive pad to support the keybar on a 2nd button?

    Yeah, I have an 8250. I love it, there's really no reason to get a turbo R, although I have been itching to get mine upgraded to msx 2+

    what is the advantage of a MSX2+ to a normal MSX2 in term of playing games?

    so in which way does it looks better? what kind of improvement brings the +? scrolling? colors? layers? speed? flickers? slow downs?

    That is a nice MSX, it would be awesome if it was upgradeable. But perhaps you should change your signature, cause you know , I know what the signature says. After all, I understand Swedish almost like a native Swede.

    I always liked the look of this one, even if it is aimed at kids.

    But the best looking has to be this MSX console.
