BIOS (16 kB)
MSX BASIC V1.0 (16 kB)

Video Display Processor: Texas Instruments TMS9918 family
Video RAM: 16 kB

Resolution: 256×192 (16 colours). In reality there are just 15 colour tints available, because, just like Sinclair Spectrum there are two codes for black. Unlike the Spectrum however, one of the blacks is actually "transparent", so the MSX video picture could be overlaid on another video signal, for example one from a video disk.
