Yesterday went to your place and tried only few games. Some are just magnificent! Pretty nice graphics and engin good enough to win against me very often. Today will try to see few other programs. Rebel 11 I will buy for sure. Strangly enough it is still not in my chess shop in Montreal on St-Denis street. I am not used to buy through Internet. Will go and see if my program is already in chess shop. Leonid.
