Philips NMS8280

This is an MSX2 machine (MSX was a Microsoft compatibility standard followed by many Japanese manufacturers who made various mutually compatible home micros in the EIghties — MSX2 offered better hardware). Somewhat unusually, it offers A/V out and in, and this made it pretty popular as a cheap special effects, marquee etc console for small TV stations (it could feed A/V in to A/V out, superimposing its own image wherever needed).
