MSX-DOS was created by Tim Paterson as a port to Z80
of MS-DOS 1.25. The rest,
and hardware, was primarily Japanese, but later marketed everywhere except USA.
I remember a handful of MSX-type systems in the USA, though, and some were
widely advertised, like the pre-/almost-MSX Spectravideo systems like the
SV-318 and SV-328, and the Yamaha CX5M, though Yamaha was pitching this almost
entirely as a music computer given the MSX capability would have been almost
irrelevant to an American buyer.
