Nice work, Mark! Not only fun, but filling in some major gaps in my knowledge.
I'd never heard of the MSX until I started going online and learning about retrogaming and computing. It just wasn't a factor in the U.S. as far as I know, though Bill's suggestion that it was marketed in music stores is quite interesting.
It's a shame, because I sometimes get criticized in my various writings for not paying due homage to the platform, which I think is rather unfair since it was so obscure here.
