Hey everyone,
I found this great video on youTube about MSX.
It is from a 1986 British tv show and it features Bill Gates, Kazuhiko Nishi and mr Sinclair.
Look at what the presenter does btw when he demonstrates the compatibility between different MSX models;
He changes cartridges between two different MSX models while they are switched on (!!). The MSX's don't seem to mind, they just keep working 
Here's the link:

Enjoy!
Oeh, check that young dude who's called Bill Gates 
Oeh, and Kazuhiko Nishi is there too! 
Ramon: it has been reported that several MSX machines have hardware reset switches built into the cartridge slot(s), which cause the MSX to reset when it's switched on and a cartridge is inserted. Don't know whether it concerns 'the Hitachi' and the other machine though.

True.. My first MSX (Toshiba HX-10) had a resetswitch in the cartridge port. Nevertheless the guy I sold it to after I bought my first MSX2, blew it up in a couple of days (With my Antartic Advanture cart, which survived 
)
bill is talking abouth a 1chip msx
And it features the big question: why doesn't it have a cassette port? [although aimed at a different computer]
btw... the idea behind the MSX2 already was to implement as many features as possible on a single chip, nishi talked about this in his Tilburg 2001 lecture.
It's the first time I actually see and hear Bill Gates talking about MSX
