While classified as a eight-bit computer, the MSX has a 10-bit processor. SONY was not the only manufacture to build an MSX computer as it was an open standard developed by Nishi. Many other companies in Japan and Korea made computers based on the same standard, but the MSX 1 is the most basic of that design.
While still powered by the Z80A, the HBG 900F sported resolutions up to 512 x 512 while still running at 3.58 MHz. It was designed for the video market, though it was underpowered when compared to the Commodore Amiga which ran at twice the speed, had significantly more memory and several custom co-processors.
