Subject: Saitek chess computers

I am a fairly experienced chess player but have gotten away from the game for a
few years and wish to get reconnected.  Years ago I thoroughly enjoyed the
Kasparov Turbo S24 and now want to purchase a newer model.

I am looking at the following models and would like any feedback anyone might
have on the merits of one over the other and comared to the Excalibur top end
Grandmaster.

--Saitek Centurion      $129.00 (Can't locate one in stores)
--Saitek Chess Academy  $229.00 (Ready to purchase one this week)
--Saitek Cougar         $129.00 (May be discontinued)

--Excalibur Grandmaster  $229.00

Also I can't for some reason locate anything like a review or comparison
anywhere on these board level computer chess sets.  Any help on recommending one
of the above or similar would be grealy appreciated.

Thanks,
