Introduction
Diskmagazine released in August 1991 by MSX Club Gouda and the FCS team.
Tips:
- in the intro, Jack Vetnek receives a card from Japan, sent by his wife. He tries a phone calling, but gets only the automatic answerer. His uncle Henk replaces it in the part with scroll text.
- the hardware report is now very extended
There is almost no any music in this edition: only PSG for using the telephone in the intro and MSX-AUDIO as answer to this phone calling.
