I'm not sure how well known the Marshall Chess Club is outside of Chess circles,
but to the Chess world it's _very_ well know.  Could be that sponsorship would
be very posible, if approached properly.  If not for the first match, then maybe
for subsiquent matches.  Doing a good job of generating publicity for the match
and running the match well could go a long way for generating benifits like a
killer laptop to use.  It might put Fred's Computer Shop on the map.
