Very simple kind of project in Korea.
It is just for fun and want to make a world's smallest MSX with Keyboard.
You could imagine the size with the gradius cartridge.
This is Gradius MSX cartridge. Not imagine it is MVS cartridge. Smile

This has very simple speaker amp inside but a little bit noisy..
It is using LM386 for speaker amp. But anyways it has sound function inside.
(Can turn it off with dip switch.)







Cartridge is closed automatically with torsion spring.


Size compare with a box of cigarette. But I cannot image the size because I'm not a smoker.


Cause I compared with my hand.. Big hand.. :)


Just compare with Zemmix Neo. A little bit smaller than Zemmix Neo. (about 1 cm smaller)

Nice!! I never liked too much OCM and Zemmix because of the lack of keyboard. I like to use MSX as a computer and I don't like it to have a console appearance. I know, you can plug a pc keyboard but it makes the system less portable.

This one is a lot more as I'd like. A very little MSX with keyboard that you can carry everywhere with no problem and fully funcional. Just add a Megaflash and a tv cable to the bag and travel with it... I want that!! Running Naked in a Field of Flowers

Greetings for your work. A video to see the computer working will be nice, please!

Very impressive work. Is it low enough in the front for typing without bothering the wrists too much?

(EDIT)

On the back of it, is it a Spectravideo-style expansion port?

Of course it is not bothering any. About 24mm (Case) + 3mm (Rubber) = 27 mm from floor.
Expansion port is just 50 pin connector same with FDD connector for Korean version MSX. (IQ-2000)

Great looking machine !
What is inside ? Something identical as the Zemmix Neo ?

The case used seems to be something already exist ? right ?
