Compatibility (computing)
A family of computer models is said to be compatible if certain software that runs on one of the models can also be run on all other models of the family. The computer models may differ in Computer performance, performance, Reliability engineering, reliability or some other characteristic. These differences may affect the outcome of the running of the software. Software compatibility Software compatibility can refer to the compatibility that a particular software has running on a particular CPU architecture such as Intel or PowerPC. Software compatibility can also refer to ability for the software to run on a particular operating system. Very rarely is a Object file, compiled software compatible with multiple different CPU architectures. Normally, an application is compiled for different CPU architectures and operating systems to allow it to be compatible with the different system. Interpreter (computing), Interpreted software, on the other hand, can normally run on many differen ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Yamaha CX5M
Yamaha CX5M is an MSX-system compatible computer that expands upon the normal features expected from these systems with a built-in eight-voice FM synthesizer module, introduced in 1984 by Yamaha Corporation. This FM synth itself has stereo audio outputs, an input for a purpose-built four-octave keyboard, and a pair of MIDI Input/Output ports that could be used for normal MIDI on the second revision of the CX5M, but only used for management of data from a Yamaha DX7 on the first model. Specification The CX5M was built for the MSX standard, which included slots for inserting programmed cartridges. These cartridges extended the machine's capability, accepting a range of games, office applications and so on. Yamaha produced a range of cartridges for the system including a programmer for Yamaha's DX range of FM keyboards and a real-time sequencer. Two of these, the ''Voice Editor'' and ''Music Composer'', allowed the user to program a bank of 48 sounds for the CX5M's own built-in ...

SVI-838
The SVI-838, also known as X'press 16, is the last microcomputer produced by Spectravideo (at Hong Kong). Although it was a PC clone, it had the standard sound and video coprocessors of the MSX2, making it a hybrid system. The sales were unimpressive and it is now considered a collectible. With a SVI-811 adapter, the machine could run MSX1 programs in cartridge. Technical specifications The SVI-838 had the following technical specifications: * CPU: Intel 8088 @ 4.77 MHz * RAM: 256 to 640 KB * VRAM: 128 KB ( V9938); 16 KB ( CGA) * ROM: 16 KB (BIOS) * Keyboard: mechanic, PC standard 83 keys * Display: CGA and Yamaha V9938 for MSX2 graphics * Sound: General Instrument AY-3-8910 (PSG) * Ports: two joystick ports, TV out, video monitor out, parallel port, serial port, sound out (RCA), cartridge slot, SV expansion slot, one ISA slot. * Storage: single 5-inch disk drive (360 KB); two disk drives; one disc drive and a 20 MB HD Peripherals Main items: * SVI-109P: ''Quicksho ...

HB-F9P
The HB-F9P was a Sony MSX2-computer, launched in 1985. The abbreviation HB stands for ''Hit Bit''. The HB-F9P was unusual in the sense that it did not come with a built in floppy disk drive, instead it had a built in software suite "''Memovision''" that would run automatically unless a program cartridge was inserted in the cartridge slot or the key was pressed during booting. ''Memovision'' could store data on the special HBI-55 ( battery backed RAM) "''data cartridge''" that Sony originally had developed, for their HB-55 and HB-75 MSX computers. These systems contained a simple built in program called the "''Personal Databank''". Memovision was a continuation of the same idea, but much extended, as it contained stuff like a (birthday) calendar with alarm system, a "''family databank''" (a combination of a text editor and database) a built in calculator and a timer and time calculator, all rendered in pseudo 3D style. Variants Of the HB-F9 there were many different localize ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Philips NMS 8280
The Philips NMS 8280 was a MSX2 computer from the Dutch company Philips, launched in 1987. The abbreviation NMS stands for ''New Media System''. Its integrated genlock enabled professional video use, and the case allowed installation in a video rack. Intended be a video editing system, the machine was sold with a mouse. The hardware was developed by Sanyo and is based on the Sanyo MPC-27. Description The computer was divided into a desktop case and an external keyboard, with a similar appearance to the NMS 8250 and NMS 8255. Technically it was similar to the Philips VG-8235. The computer was equipped with a Zilog Z80A microprocessor with a clock frequency of 3.58 MHz. The RAM and video memory were both 128 KB in size. It had a Yamaha YM9938 VDP video display processor and an S3527 sound chip that enabled three voices over eight octaves. The Philips NMS-8280 had a cassette interface, video input and output, two cartridge slots and one connection each for the keyboard and a ...

NMS-8250
Philips NMS 8250, (NMS is short for "New Media Systems") was a professional MSX2 home computer for the high end market, with a built in floppy disk drive in a "pizza box" configuration, released in 1986. The machine was in fact manufactured by Sanyo and it is basically the ''MPC-25FS'' with a different color. It featured professional video output possibilities, such as SCART for a better picture quality, and a detachable keyboard. Three regional models were produced: * NMS 8250/00 for the Dutch and Belgian markets with a QWERTY keyboard; * NMS 8250/16 for the Spanish market with a QWERTY keyboard with ñ key; * NMS 8250/19 for the French market with a AZERTY keyboard. The Philips NMS 8255 is a similar machine, but has with two disc drives instead of one.

The Philips NMS 8245 is a personal computer released by Philips in 1987 as part of its MSX2 line of computers. The NMS 8245, being compatible with the MSX2 standard, benefitted from the improvements introduced over the original MSX system, which include better graphical performance, more memory, and support for hardware sprites and smooth scrolling, which made it a popular choice for video games. However, like other MSX systems, it faced competition from other home computers such as the Commodore 64, Amiga, and Atari ST. Description The NMS (New Media Systems) branding reflected Philips' efforts to market the machine with a focus on multimedia, contrary to the previous VG (Video Game) series machines . This was reinforced by offering the machine with three software discs: ''MSX-DOS 1'', ''Ease'' (a multilingual office suite) and ''Designer Plus'' (a drawing program). The Philips NMS 8245 features a black and silver plastic casing with an integrated keyboard, similar to the VG- ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
