I'm an MSX-only collector. (Although I have a Sinclair ZX81 set too :))

My collection can be viewed on http://www.msx.be.tf

I mainly collect the games for the MSX system, but I have a decent amount of MSX computers too :)

Nice collection...
I particularly like the HitBit 501F. I remember that, at the time, I had this huge hesitation between the CPC 464 and this one. I finally chose the Amstrad. Still, I would like to get one Sony soon.
I had a Philips 8020 and 8235 which are both cool computers...

That's a very impressive collection!

Do you read Japanese well enough to use their auction sites or are they translated?

Hehe,
I have a friend in Japan.
I send him money, and then all I have to do is type MSX in the search box of the Jap auction site and watch the pictures :) :) :)
I then send him the auctions links I want to bid together with my max bids.

Simple but it works :)
I'm actually learning Japanese, to be able to play them Jap MSX games, but I'm just at "Hello", "How are you", so not much use yet :p

MSX was popular in Europe, but hardly anyone knows about it in the USA. I heard it was pretty comparable with the C-64 (which was also popular in Europe). Did you ever see many Apple II computers there back in the 80's in your region?
