Changes

MSX was a standardized range of Z80 based 8 bit computers developped developed by Microsoft and various (mostly) japanese producers to exploit... microsoft softwares.

4 generations of MSX were produced, each with it's own system specsupgrades and retro compatible with past specifications.

It was a serious technical concurrent to the Amstrad CPC range, later specifications being closer to 16bit computers than other 8bit systems.

Despite having the colour attributes logic(MSX1 mostly, the other through retro compatibility), it wasn't as bad as on the [[ZX Spectrum|Speccy]]. As a Z80 based computer, many European Sofware developpers developers did those awfull awful scrappy speccy ports[[Speccy Ports]], which Japanese couldn't understand ("why do they have so scrappy graphics sclappy glaphics ?")

Latter Later MSX standard standards (MSX2, MSX2+ and turboR) included a large panel of extra video modes without the colours clashes.

Or what the ZX Speccy was to England or eastern europe Europe (Speccy clones mostly...) A "serious" computer mostly used as home computer for gaming purpose by kids.
