Pardon me pleeze - it's a 102.
On a convenience level, your Minolta does have a hot shoe. So while the 101 is marginally more famous, (I guess?!?), yours is somewhat more versatile. IIRC you also get to see the shutter speed displayed in the VF.

Hmmm the winder went out on my Maxumm too. It still works and the film does advances too. I tried removing the film from the camera open the spool and rewind by hand in complete darkness and it worked. Gonna experiment with using the Maxumm for black and white portraits
As a vintage camera collector, I've come across a few times where the rewind failed, but advance works (Odd, since it logically should go the OTHER way. and it's only happened to me on Post 1970 cameras..) But, yeah, I have also rewound a few 35mm cassettes in the dark!👍

I have a Minolta Maxxum 7000, Minolta Xtsi and a Konica/Minolta 7D and loved them all.
