In the past few years, polls on MRC have been fairly random. As of now there will be a regular poll on the 14th of each month. Most polls will be related to development, aiming to provide developers with a bit of useful information for their projects. Of course, the final phase of a megapoll will have priority, as well as special polls related to unusual situations or events.

InterNestor Lite 1.1.1
Shortly after the release of InterNestor Lite 1.1 - the first MSX-UNAPI compatible version of this Internet toolkit for MSX - Konamiman released an updated version: InterNestor Lite 1.1.1.
Konamiman has updated his web site with a new version of MSX UNAPI ((Unified API definition and discovery standard), which is a standard generic procedure for defining APIs for new hardware on MSX. Now that the MSX UNAPI specification has stepped to version 1.0, the time for the first implementations has come as well.

Today, MSX Posse have published video footage of the 1991 edition of the legendary Zandvoort MSX fair in the Netherlands. If you want to have an impression of how massive Dutch MSX fairs were at the time, the video is well worth having a look at.
