[Retro] c'est trop

NANI ???

"I’m thinking 18 hours a day to finalize the specifications of MSX3 with the aim of meeting software developers at the end of July. There are three things [that the third generation of MSX] is aiming for.

"The first is to make an inexpensive one-board system that runs on Linux as an extension of the previous computer. The displays are 2K, 4K and 8K. When you connect an optical disc, it takes CD, DVD, Blu-Ray, and UHD Blu-Ray. If you connect to the Internet, you can play video and audio.

"The second is a device for IoT. About 300 types of Grove sensors can be connected, and programmed with MSX IoT BASIC.

« And the third is Super Computing. Eight 64-bit modules of ARM realize a cubic menicoa cluster combined with the Torus network in the XYZ direction. I want to make an easy-to-use supercomputer for people who have never touched one. No one has done this in the world of computers and smartphones. It’s about 128 CPU at most, but I want to try it with 1024 CPU from the beginning. »

Téma l’ambition :astonished:

And over on Twitter, he’s just announced this month that Occam will be the new programming language for the MSX 3, saying that this will allow for « more detailed and efficient programming ».

Ca c’est dommage par contre, ça fait un langage de plus à apprendre.
