I wonder if Mr. De Koning would be in jeapordy of losing his relationship with
The Learning Co.?  I mean wouldn't the creators of say Mchess, for instance,
jump at the chance to put their engine into Chessmaster?  Mchess may have to
sell their software for less; but, with such a mass market available for
Chessmaster, Mchess would still make a big profit, wouldn't they?  Chess engine
software is such a suprisingly competitive market that I would think that
Chessmaster would have their pick of the market,  Something like Genius chess
does only not as expensive as Genius.
