Subject: The worst chessprogram I ever seen is in Excalibur LCD chess

I read a review of Excalibur LCD chess on http://www.chesscafe.com/
There they gave an example of its playing:
1. e4 c6 2. d3 e5 3. f4  Bb4+ 4. c3 exf4
In other word it gave away a bishop for a pawn. I asked  them if that wasn’t on
a handicap level. It was not!
I am no strong chessplayer and don’t need a strong chessprogram, but this is the
worst I ever seen. It doesn’t even look 1 move forward. It is as a bad joke.
I think that LCD chess is a good idea, but where did they found a miserable
program like this?
