I still have an original Novag Super Constellation that I keep around because of sentimental value (and no it's not for sale :) I paid over $200 dollars for it new (back around 1984/85) and I've always enjoyed it. Given that it runs at approximately ~3/4 Mhz it plays amazingly well tactically. Anyway, at $30 dollars (if you can actually get it at that price) it's a steal. One thing you might want to consider is that you'll want the Novag adapter to go with it since running it on batteries is expensive. --Tom On April 22, 2000 at 01:48:46, Bryan wrote: > >Hey thanks for the feedback. actually I have chessmaster 5500 for my pc, but I >think I want an actual physical computer in front of me.
