Description from the seller

Philips VG-8020 MSX Home Computer - Complete with Joystick & Cables

A splendid specimen of the Philips VG-8020/00.
This is Philips' most popular MSX computer, known for its reliability and the sleek design that fits into any retro interior.

This machine is in very neat condition. The casing is clean and the keyboard has been fully cleaned and types again excellently. As shown in the photos, there are two scratches on the top of the casing. For the collector or hobbyist, this is easy to repair, or simply to accept as the 'character' of a machine that has been around for 40 years.

Tested and working: The computer boots up immediately and all functions work properly.
Includes the necessary cabling to get started right away.
Includes a matching joystick for the ultimate retro gaming experience.

The VG-8020 features 64KB RAM and is the ideal machine for playing Konami classics, or for those who want to rediscover the basics of programming in MSX-BASIC.
