Tilburg 2003 reminder
Today at 10:00 CET the annual International MSX Fair of Tilburg will start. Active MSX users of Netherlands and abroad will meet in 'Wijkcentrum De Schans' in Tilburg. As usual, CGV Tilburg is the host of this special computer users meeting, where most attention goes to MSX computers. There are more stand holders han last year, which promises a good thing for the fair itself. We are looking for a busy day at the MRC stand. Here's the full list of standholders and their activities:
- CGV Tilburg - Fair organization
- MSX-NBNO - Selling software, manuals and XSW magazines, including a new software title: Imanok's Cat 'n mouse
- Team Bomba - Demonstrating the latest version of Bombaman.
- The openMSX development team will show the latest version of openMSX
- Deltasoft will sell lots of software titles as usual, including the recently released translation of Xak 1. Furthermore a new English translation, Falcom's Sorcerian will be released

The MSX Resource Center stand offers many activities throughout the entire day. On our stand we will have several interesting lectures from 11:00 to 14:00. A detailed timeschedule will be handed out on the fair itself.
- Marcel Delorme will talk about his OPL4 wave editor for GFX9000

- Perhaps Team Bomba will show some Bombaman highlights
Apart from these presentations, you can have a look at MSX Magazine 2003, Emulator & Games magazine and the @rroba magazine that featured an interview with the MSX Resource Center. Also we will have a large amount of rare Japanese MSX games for sale. Throughout the day, some people will share the stand with us.
