It's nor Fair!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just found out about this FPGA MSX project and read through and was thinking "Great where can I get one outside Japan" then after lots of googling I found out this

NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shame I was really looking forward to this one.

That is a real shame. That looked like a great project, akin to something like the Minimig.

Any idea what ROHS regulations it failed? Seems mad that a computer system would contain anything hazardous.

Probably the interference problem that all old computers had. (Remember when using a computer would interfere with radio signals?) I think it failed more on the licensing issues although as the technology is over 25 years old I doubt that the MSX Association has much money or clout to make a legal challenge.

From what I've seen the only retro FPGA computer to make it has been the MiniMig. Even the C-One (A FPGA C64/VIC 20 clone) seems to have disappeared.
