MSX NBNO sent some sad news to the MSX Mailinglist today. They have announced that the two persons who were responsible for organizing the MSX NBNO fairs, held in Oss in January of each year, have decided not to organize new fairs in the future. This means that the annual MSX fairs in Oss will probably not be held anymore.
The annual 'new-years' fair of NBNO started as a small MSX user meeting, but especially the last three years the amount of visitors and standholders grew a lot, making it a very important and pleasant day for the Dutch MSX Community. The bad news means there are now two big MSX fairs in the Netherlands each year: the MSX fair in Bussum organized by TNI, which will be held on October 9th this year and the Computer Meeting in Tilburg organized by CGV Tilburg of which the following edition has not been confirmed as of yet.
It goes without saying that the annual MSX fair in Bussum has now become the most important MSX fair of the Netherlands, and with that one of the most important MSX meetings in the world, as it is now the only large-scale MSX-only event in the Netherlands. We strongly recommend the MSX fair in Bussum and hope you will all be there this year to have a look at the latest developments in the MSX community, to meet many active MSX users in person and to have a very pleasant day in general.

**Update**
At 21:45, a second MSX NBNO-posting was submitted to the MSX Mailinglist. In this message, another MSX NBNO-member states the previous MSX NBNO press release was a bit premature. MSX NBNO assures us they have not given up hope and that they are still in negotiation with the owner of the location where the previous fairs were held. After the summerholidays, MSX NBNO can tell us more about whether the Oss fair 2005 will take place or not.
