Disclosure: Because the way MSX video signal is generated the image could present light vertical bars across the screen, depending on the monitor and selected video output. This behaviour is most noticeable on flat panel monitors receiving RGB/composite signal.
Power supply is not included. Unit requires at least 2 AMPs output, high quality power supply (5 volts, center positive). 3D printed cases might show imperfectionsRETURN AND REFUND POLICY
