He wrote, that the Nimzo-Program from Chrilly Donninger should be available at the end of january 99. It`s named NIMZO 2000 (!!!!) ;-). On the CD-Rom the user can select between two possibilities : 1.) Nimzo 2000 with the well known interface of Nimzo 98. 2.) Winboard - Engine NIMZO 2000 with an converter for the Millennium Chess System. It`s possible, to use this engine under winboard or as an engine for the new Genius 6. On the CD-Rom is also a new opening book available ..... If this is right, it seems, that Nimzo is the most present chess program on the market .... >>>They don't have to build a driver, Genius 5 already had one. It worked >>>perfectly. I won't be buying Genius 6 without it, since I don't buy upgrades >>>that remove features. So far no Rebel 10, CM6000, and now Genius 6.

That is new to me. > But soon we'll see if CSS or MCS is right with their statements. I have seen this statement in CSS. In my experience it`s better, not to believe everything what you can read ......;-). I asked Mr. Weiner and he told me, that this message in CSS must be a missunderstanding and they will definitive publish NIMZO2000. Have fun -Peter
