Bill Gates MSX & The Earl's Court Computer Show & the Yamaha CX5M

via this auction

"COME HOME TO A LITTLE HAPPINESS

HAPPINESS IS YAMAHA CX5M SHAPED

Yamaha’s 4 OPERATOR FM MUSIC COMPUTER & PIANO

FEATURES:

DUAL MODE & SPLIT MODE PIANO/KEYBOARD & Heavy Duty Flight Case!

A BEAUTIFUL CUSTOM CASE WAS MADE FOR THIS WHEN FIRST PURCHASED IN 1983 & ITS BEEN IN THE CASE EVER SINCE & HAD VERY LITTLE USE SO ITS IN LIKE NEW CONDITION. I'VE NEVER SEEN A CX5M IN SUCH FINE CONDITION! THE KEYBOARD AND COMPUTER FEEL & LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN TOUCHED!

The Yamaha CX5M was made around 1984-1985 and was based on the MSX standard. It had a Z80 CPU and ran, apart from ROM BASIC, an operating system equivalent to MS-DOS 1.0.

It also has a built-in 4-operator FM synth (as opposed to the DX7's 6 operators), soundwise equivalent (and patch-compatible, I think) to the DX9, DX21, DX100, and FB-01

Recently Serviced & With A Very Beautiful Key Action.

"A Vast & Beautifully Crytaline Clarity Of A Yamaha DX21 FM Synth & Much More.

The Most Beautiful & The Finest HAMMOND B3 To Die For!"
