fMSX is a portable MSXemulator written by Marat Fayzullin, one of the pioneers of modern computer emulation. It is one of the earliest MSX emulators, and is also the most ported.[1] fMSX is written in C with emphasis on portability. fMSX was a very influential and a number of emulators started as forks of fMSX, including blueMSX and paraMSX. The Z80 emulation code by Marat Fayzullin has been used on many other emulators including MAME and MESS among others.

The major difference between fMSX and the two competitors at the time was the fact that the sourcecode of fMSX was freely available for non-commercial use, allowing other developers to improve the emulator or to port it to other computer systems and operating systems.
fMSX developer Marat Fayzullin considers the GUI and the extra support he has to give to Windows users to be valuable enough to charge for it.
Although the 3.0 release of fMSX brings a bit more bang for your buck with the new debugger and the full-screen mode, we suggest you spend those $35,- on new or old MSX software or hardware.
