But hey, I was kicked from the brazilian MSX list for talking too much
about CoCo's there and now you're talking about MSX in the CoCo list
:P

So that I/F you are using is an MSX to IDE I take it, and it looks like you have another adapter attached to it.   Cant tell from pic what it is/does.  But anyway thanks for the info!

And i am afraid i don't remember much of my portuguese.  it has been WAY too long since i visited there.....  But anyway, i will take a look at them.  so i gather you are IN Brazil?  Well, here is a question, do you know anyone who has a working disk interface for the MSX they might want to part with?  i have a dual drive but my I/F is toast, it only causes repeated resets to the computer, and no boot action at all.
