I heard some of you talking about networking on MSX retros...

Man, I saw some of Sontano BBSes MSXvr videos - and these 8-bits look really cool. First, that MSXvr is some type of Raspberry Pi based hardware, with two cart ports that allow you to load original cart software...

GR8NET is a network cart/card that allows you to connect ethernet to your MSX or MSXvr... and has some MP3/audio capabilities... I'm new so I don't know exactly... but...

SymbOS looks really nice, too - like a 'current' OS for MSX hardware that has stuff like MP3 player, iRC, email, task manager, video and more... I wish we had a solution like this for C= hardware. [There are some projects, but nothing this polished TODAY...]

So; do many of ya'll use MSX hardware? And would you suggest getting into it? Heck, that GR8NET device even seems to have a server that you can load original software right over the interwebs... type in a command, game pops up. :P The whole setup looks really polished, active and nice. 

C= is, too... but in my quick glance, MSX seems pretty freaking active. What regions used MSX hardware the most? I notice a lot of spanish-speaking MSX groups, is why I ask... anyway - I have interest... these 3 projects seem right up my alley.
