Daniel do your download stats show the countires of download? That might make interesting reading.

It does but not per file so I can't look at only the downloads. I'm not sure how accurate it is though, USA is quite over represented but maybe thats not really US people. Its not robots, because they are shown separate and account for about 3% of the bandwith. Here are the country stats based on bandwidth for April 2006 (quite representative for all months):

USA - 19 GB
Japan - 6 GB
Australia - 3 GB
Spain - 2.7 GB
Netherlands - 2.4 GB
Brazil - 1.8 GB
European Union - 1.6 GB
Great Britain - 0.6 GB
Korea - 0.6 GB
Saudi Arabia - 0.5 GB
Kuweit - 0.4 GB
Germany - 0.3 GB

Curious to see Australia so well represented...and it's very interesting too the presence of the arab countries where the Al-Alamiah models spreaded so much (no downloads from Yemen?).

Yeah I wonder why Australia is so high and also USA actually. Can it be some proxies or something?

France - 0.3 GB
Russia - 0.3 GB
Italy - 0.2 GB
United Arab Emirates - 0.2 GB

msx died in '86 when MSX2 was introduced. Too bad time didn't stop in '85

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


no, you are wrong, MSX2 was born dead. In Finland there were no MSX2s. (well, just few)

If you donīt believe me, check this evidence:

http://www.google.com/trends?q=msx2&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all

No-one uses MSX2.



Thats true in Sweden too. I don't know anyone that got an MSX2. Most Swedish MSX1 users got either an Atari ST or Amiga or in rare cases a PC. Myself got about 5 Atari ST, all of them eqully crappy



I guess the dutchies are an exception...in fact, I'm kinda out of place here, being Dutch and having no Turbo-R
(well, that's a little exaggerated, I guess )

As for the interest in (blue)MSX, that's because
-Metal Gear is really, really popular
-It's just such a friggin' great emulator
